    HELP PLEASE !!

    I am out the door with buying batteries for these remote, I've learned that "cheapy" batteries DONT work and those "Simply Duracell" are pure crap.

    Can anyone advise me the best ones to buy/or rechargeables ??

    TIA

    2500 mAh rechargeable batteries should do the job nicely.

    Get something like this:

    Or if you're on a tighter budget:

    It'll pay pay itself in no time. Rechargeable batteries all the way. Normal batteries are a complete waste of money and it's a never ending money pit.

    Both of those come with a charger and you'll need batteries charging while the others are in the remote.

    On the batteries posted above, I know loads of people had problems with batteries before when they were rated below 2000 mAh, the Wii remotes either didn't work with them at all, or lasted no time.

    2500 mAh batteries typically have no problems.
