Rob, Green

+ The product is perfect for storing and charging the PS3 controllers. It runs from the mains and therefore; eliminates the problem of only charging controllers whilst the console is on.

- I'm not overly keen on the neon lights. Personally a small LED light would be suffice to display the charging status. The spaceship look is great if you're 15 not if you're 30!

Mike, Leeds , “mature gamer liking gadgets”

+ Looks great with glowing holders: red for charging and green for charged.
It charges a controller quicker than directly from the PS3 too.
It means I have a lot less leads dangling out from my PS3 because the pelican has 2 usb ports as well, so I can charge my bluetooth headset via it as well.
Well made - not cheap looking at all.
Good value for money too.
