It was $25 Canadian at eb games. Excellent value.

I bought this in December from GameStop, and it didn't work with my controllers. The light turned green right away, even if I knew the battery was dying from the PS3 message. I left them plugged in overnight thinking maybe just the light was broken but it might still charge, but the batteries were still low the next day. I exchanged it, and have the same problem on the 2nd charger. So for some reason they don't like my controllers (they are standard pre-Dualshock Sony controllers - one came with the 80 gb and the other bought separate at the same time).

However, I took it to my sister's house and threw one of her hubby's controllers in it, and it worked just fine. Not sure what it has against my controllers. I opened a ticket with Pelican, and they were aware of no compatibility issues.
