Detailed overview: Xbox controller rechargeable battery, 4800 mWh (x2)

Xbox controllers still ship running on two AA batteries by default, which adds up fast in cost and landfill waste for anyone who games regularly. This twin pack swaps them for dedicated rechargeable cells that click into the exact same battery compartment, no controller mod required.

Each battery is rated at 4800 mWh (roughly 2000 mAh) and delivers well over twenty hours of play per charge. Charging happens over the included USB-C cable, either off the controller or plugged straight in while playing, and a small LED turns red during charging and green once full, so there is never a guessing game about battery level.

The kit includes two batteries and four battery-compartment covers sized for both the Xbox One and Series X/S generations of controller, plus the Xbox Elite pad. Keeping one battery charged as a spare means swapping in fresh power in seconds instead of digging through a junk drawer for AA cells mid-match.

Frequently asked questions: Xbox controller rechargeable battery, 4800 mWh (x2)

Yes, as long as the battery compartment on the back of the controller pops open, which covers Xbox One, Series X, Series S and Elite pads. The included covers are sized for both the older Xbox One shape and the newer Series X/S controllers, so either generation is covered out of the box.

For anyone who games often, yes. At 4800 mWh per cell, runtime is close to a fresh set of alkalines, but the two batteries in this pack mean one can charge while the other is in use, so play never has to stop. The LED indicator also removes the guesswork of wondering how much charge is left.
