Capacity

How long DINOSTRIKE packs run

Each bar is a pack's capacity in mWh. A longer bar means more play from one charge, and a longer wait on the dock before the light turns green.

  1. 3,600 mWhplay time not stated

    Six-Pack Charging Station, 6 × 3600 mWh

  2. 4,080 mWhabout 10 hours

    Quad Charging Dock, 4 × 4080 mWh

  3. 4,800 mWhrated per model

    Quad Charger with Light Switch, 4 × 4800 mWh: up to 20 hours, PRO Charging Station, 4 × 4800 mWh PRO: about 15 hours, Play and Charge Kit, 2 × 4800 mWh: 8 to 12 hours per pack

  4. 5,520 mWhrated per model

    A100 Charging Station, 5520 mWh: 18 to 25 hours, Quad Charger with Built-In Cable, 4 × 2550 mAh: 20 to 25 hours, A100 Spare Battery Set, 2 × 5520 mWh

  5. 6,200 mWhrated per model

    RGB Charging Station, 6200 mWh: 15 to 20 hours, Compact Dual Charger, 2 × 6200 mWh: about 30 hours across both packs

mWh measures the energy a pack stores. The quad charger with the built-in cable sells its packs as 2550 mAh; its own box art gives the same pack as 5520 mWh, and that is the row it sits in.

What the lights mean

  • RedThe pack is charging.
  • GreenThe pack is full, or the slot is on standby.
  • Three green flashes at power-onThe 2550 mAh station checking itself: it is working.
  • Light off on a kit packThe pack charging inside a controller has finished.

Most homes need one of two things. If the controllers die mid-session and someone hunts for AA cells, a dock with packs ends that: one pack runs in each controller while its spare charges. If you play plugged in anyway, a play-and-charge kit lets the cable feed the pack inside the controller.

After that, choose by pack size and by night light. Packs run from 3600 to 6200 mWh, and the bigger the pack, the longer it lasts and the longer it charges. Bedroom docks should go dark on a switch or a long press.

The 10 models here, on the Xbox charging stations and Xbox play and charge kits shelves, are part of the DINOSTRIKE lineup, and each page lists what is in its box.

Not sure your controller takes a pack? Run the fit check: the Elite Series 2 and the Xbox 360 pad take none of ours.

Questions about DINOSTRIKE Xbox controller power

Do you need a DINOSTRIKE dock, or will a kit do?

Take a dock if your controllers die mid-session: a spare pack charges while the other one runs. Take a play and charge kit if you are happy to play with a cable plugged in while the pack charges inside the controller.

Should you leave DINOSTRIKE packs charging overnight?

The docks list protection against over-charge, over-current, over-heating and short circuit, and a full pack shows green. Still, the U.S. Fire Administration advises charging on a solid, flat surface and not leaving devices charging unattended when you can avoid it, so the habit to build is: packs in after the session, dock unplugged once the lights turn green. Stop using any pack that swells, leaks or gets damaged. The help desk has the battery care notes.

Why do DINOSTRIKE packs come with two kinds of cover?

Xbox One and Series X|S controllers take the same pack, but their battery doors are shaped differently. Kits with covers include two of each, so you can use the pair that matches your pad.
