 "TOO BULKY for small hands" | 2003-08-21 |
| - Reviewed By dbgtmom |
| Okay, the reason you buy the GBA is because it has a great COMPACT size that fits well in your hands, even small one. So why would you want to add a battery pack that is extremely bulky, heavy, and hangs off the back of the GBA like it is some type of store security device made to discourage theft? This thing is ill-fitted to the GBA because, unlike the power grips which has rechargable batteries made into a grip that is more like a full-size game's control pad which is ergonomically correct for usage, this thing plugs into the GBA's back and sticks out of the middle while hanging down in back, making it hard to hold for extended periods of time. Welcome to Carpel tunnel syndrome for kids!!! |

| Sure my son got a fair amount of enjoyment from his gameboy and rechargeable power pak, but the power pak is only 3 months old and no longer takes a charge! There is no way to totally discharge it, thus clearing the "memory" and my attempts to contact Interact have been totally unsuccessful. I think I'll head out and just buy rechargeable batteries. |

| This unit is nice because it saves money on batteries and allows more play time. The only drawback I found is that it does not stay on the cradle when charging very well. It will be fine if it is on a completely flat surface and it is not bumped. It is also important that the kids don't run around nearby or it will fall of the cradle from the vibration. It needs some sort of clip to hold the gameboy advance in place, if it had one it would be 5 stars. I gave this item 4 stars just based on the cost savings alone, it is worth it. |

| I bought this adapter along with the purchase of some games, hoping to save the cost of batteries over time. It was a big mistake, this adapter hasnt worked from day one. I am truly disappointed in the brand and will be sure never to buy anything from this company again. |

| "B+" | 2002-04-05 |

| I would give it a B+ because it lasts for a long time. The batty lasts about 15 hours. Its really good and i have never had troble with it. But the cradle does no work to well and sometimes your GBA falls out of it. Its great for big time gamers. What i don't like about it is disables the GBA to fit in to your pocket. Yodadude75 |

But after a week of use it burnt it self out.All of my friends had the same problem.It also only will hold a hour's worth of power.Its just a waste of money.You are better off buying batteries. |

| Okay, for serious gamers, the prospect of a battery pak that can be recharged instead of buying double A's all the time is a dream come true. I got this item and am very happy with it. Yes, it makes the GBA heavier, but I didn't mind it. It stays firmly in place, and doesn't fall out. Plus you can use the plug for the recharger as an AC adapter as well. And that plug is nice and small...not big and clunky like some. So you have choices. I just leave my power pak in all the time, since I play at home for the most part. I think a battery pak was an excellent idea for this company to come up with, since I was always running outta batteries, and money to buy them with. I recommend this product, if you feel the same way, and don't mind a little bulkiness to save money. =) |
