Im just a dude watching over my parents,
and trying to make cartoons and video games from home.

Don’t Buy this xBox 360 4800mAh Battery Pack on eBay

Important!

Dear visitors,

This blog and the Tigarus.com network will be changing our website software in May (2024). There will be some down time and there will be a change to the webpage addresses.

We will also be removing the Anime blogs. The Rocksmith Songs website will be unavailable of a few weeks or months while I move the database to the new software.

At the moment we are running on Wordpress, the new software is an in-house project which is 57 times faster. It will also provide more freedom for development.

Thank you for understanding.

Stuff I bought on eBay, today I took a chance with the 4800mAh Battery Pack + Rechargeable Charger Cable For Xbox 360 Controller shipped from Hong Kong; Don’t Buy This!

I purchased the battery pack for about nine dollars Canadian, it shipped from Hong Kong quickly and is a retail product in packaging. The product looked to be a genuine foreign product until I tried it.

After a hard day, I like to relax with a cold jar of pickle juice and a hardy fart. If you like my blog, please consider donating.


The first thing I noticed with the product that caught my eye was the large battery capacity of 4800mAh, my Sanyo/Sony rechargeable are only 4000mAh together (AA 2x2000mAh) and costs much more. Well after trying to recharge the battery with my USB charger I was unsuccessful, the capacity was much lower, I estimate about 200mAh which means about five minutes of usage. I should of known it was too good to be true as you can feel the weight difference between my Sanyo/Sony batteries and this xBox battery, the Sanyo/Sony batteries are much heavier.

The charger cable appears to be a fully functional cable able to provide power to the controller so my purchase was not a total waste.

Bottom Line, Don’t Buy This!
