and got told i need to know the "milliwattage" (spelling could be wrong) of the batteries. i was just wondering what type of rechargable batteries i need to get for the wiimotes milliwattage,if it matters, size [AA i think], and make if that matters please

got ours second hand off here and it looks sames
came with a couple of nicad rechargeable batteries in which worked but i changed them for a couple of 1000 mah nimh batterys
the higher the mah the longer theyll last between charges so the bigger the better
stay away from nicads as wont last and could cause problems with charging

just realised the advert for the dock says as charging bay for 2x aa but also says the remotes use aaa batterys (ours do) so i think you may need the aaa batterys like these
