I'd highly recommend the nyko charging dock. It comes with a dock and 2 recharge packs (one for each controller). I've been using it for several months now and get plenty of battery life on both batteries.

If that's your only issue, you should probably buy a Play and Charge Kit.

Get yourself a play-and-charge kit and a chatpad for your existing controller.

It isn't rechargeable as the standard. It will require 2 AA batteries like the 360 controller. You can purchased a plug and charge kit for about 25 dollars that will come with a recharging battery pack. In the box I assume it will come with a set of AA's to get you going.
Also to note though that the connection to charge your controller will be a standard micro usb connection, so you can use your controller as a wired controller without batteries if you are so inclined to do so. I am not sure if the micro usb cable is included, but if you have ever owned a smart phone (besides the iphone) in the last 3 or 4 years I am sure you have one lying around.
Edit: added source
Microsofts own Xbox One Play and Charge Kit.
You can buy a wireless adapter here if disposable batteries are an expense.

That's why you have at least two sets. One set always fully charged in the wall charger, and the other set in your controller. It takes like 10-20 seconds to swap batteries.
Here's an Energizer set that includes a wall charger and four AA batteries for about $16. I used to use the Xbox One Play and Charge Kit, but it only has one pack, is more expensive ($25-$30), and I've found that those packs tend to wear down quicker than regular batteries. And there are a ton of people here who swear by Eneloop rechargeable batteries, but they're more expensive than the Energizer/Duracell options ($26-$36).
Does he/she use it with the TV or play a lot of media?
The Media Remote is awesome.
Or how about a Play & Charge kit?
Yes it does! Its this one: Nyko Charge Block Solo (White) - Xbox One Nyko https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LZ1TQ4F/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_awdb_t1_xYqSAbB15ACJ6
Please, everyone, take a look at this.
This is a GREAT setup, and very reasonably priced. It is a great way to store your controllers. If your controller drops out, just swap and you are back in the game. You can charge extra battery packs solo, if you and a friend are playing 24/7.
I had one for my 360 and fell in love with it. I bought one for my One, and am still super-pleased. Frankly, I don't see how people get by without something like this!

[Xbox Play and Charge] (https://www.amazon.com/Xbox-One-Play-Charge-Kit/dp/B00DBDPOZ4)
You mean like the one officially offered by Microsoft? Thats a pretty good one.
You just need either the Play and Charge Kit or Wired Controller (older)/Wired Controller (newer) or a Sweet Third-Party Controller
There's actually a first party battery pack (manufactured and sold by Microsoft). My router is really powerful and causes some interference when playing wireless, so for games that require a lot of precise inputs like fighting games, I play wired. For games like FFXIV, I play wireless so I can recline back and zone out since a few lost inputs aren't the end of the world.
Nyko Charge Blocks. They're really cool. You buy different blocks for whatever controllers you have (in my case, 3 Xbox and 1 Switch), snap them together, and they can all be charged from a single USB cable. Only problem is there's no real way to turn them on and off without unplugging them, but I bought a MicroUSB cable with a power switch near the MicroUSB end to deal with that. I've linked to the Xbox version below. They're also for PS3, Switch JoyCons, and I believe there's one for the Nintendo Pro Controller as well.

I got this and I am never looking back.
Here's one they have for the original Xbox I just found on Amazon. And it comes with TWO batteries! For only $20! I can't believe it and will definitely be picking one up. Those damn wires drive me crazy if I'm trying to play a game. I would've never found this without your comment so thanks for that!

At least the JoyCons can be charged without extra investment at all. The same cannot be said about an Xbox One controller. And I own three of them.

Yup, if you already have a controller you can just get the play and charge accessory.
Weird. AA batteries should last you at least 30 hours of use with no headset. I personally use a play and charge kit and get really good battery life. Highly recommend it, not specifically for increasing battery life (though it may help if you're having some weirdness), but for saving money and convenience since you never have to get disposable batteries again.

What console does he have now? An Xbox 360?
Just wait till Black Friday and get whatever is cheapest.
You don't need Kinect or the Xbox One S. Just get the regular Xbox One with a controller... might be bundled with some games, if that's the cheaper option.
The console does not come with a controller recharger -- it just has batteries. So it's up to you if you want to keep buying batteries, use rechargeable batteries, or buy the [Play and Charge Kit] (https://www.amazon.com/Xbox-One-Play-Charge-Kit/dp/B00DBDPOZ4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1474487379&sr=8-1&keywords=xbox+one+play+and+charge). Personally I have the play & charge because I don't want to be bothered with buying/recharging batteries.
Recommended games for him: Halo Master Chief Collection, Halo 5. Final Fantasy XV is coming out Sept 30th but it will be cheaper if you wait a while to get it. Final Fantasy Type-0 HD is pretty cheap right now, but it doesn't have the best reviews -- it started off as a handheld game, so it's not a huge game.
Games are going to be way cheaper used on Amazon than in any stores. You can buy an Amazon gift card with cash at a store and use that to buy stuff on Amazon.
Sure, i'm actually using a combination of these Nyko Charge Block Solo's Nyko Charge Block Solo, I have a PS4, Xbox one and Nintendo Switch one chained together.
I'm pretty sure you can just plug it in and use it without batteries. It uses a micro-usb cable, not a proprietary one.
If you don't want to use batteries, you can just use this official battery from Microsoft. Then the controller will be rechargeable like a Dualshock 4. It also comes with a micro-usb cable.
My girlfriend told me that at the end of the day she will buy everything in my amazon cart up to 300 dollars...
But I didn't really have anything I needed or even wanted all that bad.. Took me all day to find stuff lol.

Still have 8 dollars left over haha.
TBH, I don't recall what type of batteries they take--I assume either AA or AAA. I bought one of those cheap Nyko charging kits at Costco when the XBox One was first released (years ago). The kit came with rechargeable batteries and I've used those ever since. When I got a One S controller the battery and cover fit so I use it for both the old style & new. There are other, similar charging kits on Amazon--I'm not sure which is the best. The one I have has been adequate.
I play with rechargeables, and prefer them.
Here is a scenario as to why... you are playing a game, really getting into it, when your controller turns off due to runing out of "juice".
With rechargables, you switch out the batteries, and continue to play just like before.
With charge kit, you have to plug in your controller, so you are now using a controller hooked to your console. I, personally, don't like that.

also there's a dreamgear upside down one as well
not sure how well they work. Also seems kinda awkward to carefully place your controller into and not sure if thats not damaging it somehow
If you need recommendations, since 2013 I've been simultaneously switching between the official MS plug & play kit and the Insignia branded version (from Best Buy), both of these are excellent IMO; the MS branded pack is 1400 mAh (that's your charging capacity), while the Insignia is 1200 mAh, but the difference is hardly noticeable. And they still hold a charge like a champ.
Recently, I've added the AmazonBasics brand battery packs to my arsenal. Depending on your console model and entertainment center setup, they have a nifty charger that plugs right into your Xbox and nearly looks like a part of the system. I managed to pickup the version of the charger meant for the original Xbox One on a steep sale, and even though I had to get creative to use the charger itself, it was still 2 battery packs for the cost of one of the other single battery kits--and all of these battery packs are capable of being charged through the controller (or through the AmazonBasics charger, btw).

Just regular AA batteries (I use rechargeable ones). Or you can get one of these.
this controller with the optional accessory is the best i have came across so far.
Nyko Charge Base
http://www.amazon.com/Nyko-Charge-Base-Xbox-One/dp/B00FLLFJE0
A little more expensive, but it keeps things neat and shows you the charging status of the controller.
I use the nyko - dual controller charging dock. I like it, as it is narrow and long; so it fits in tighter places even with both controllers docked.
They can use 2 AA batteries or the Xbox rechargeable battery pack:
https://www.amazon.com/Xbox-One-Play-Charge-Kit/dp/B00DBDPOZ4
I have a couple of controllers using either the Xbox battery or standard rechargeable Ni-MH AA batteries. Both work great and last a long time between charges. Just avoid buying generic battery packs on eBay. I have had nothing but problems with them.
Don't know if you know of them, but there are Xbox controller stands.
There's a stand specifically for the Gears Elite controller but it's quite pricey.
There is a cheaper alternative but it's not the same.

Be sure to look at the options that are out there. I personally use one by Nyko, and bought a charge base for it. It doesn't require any plugging in using the micro-USB (thus saving your micro-USB cords from wear n' tear), and is very convenience. When I'm done playing, I literally just set the controller on the base and it starts charging. No fuss, no muss.

The Microsoft-made Xbox One S does not come with rechargeable batteries. There are a few good options on Amazon, including MS's Play and Charge kit:

Actually don't buy that. It comes with the old style controller , it's actually cheaper to buy one of the new S style controller (better bumpers, bluetooth, headphone jack, and textured grip) and the play and charge kit separately, here's the links for those:

Thank me later. Far better option than the insignia side dock, dont have to constantly take out your battery pack, just drop it on the charger and your good. Havent had any problems since i bought it 6 months ago.
I'm a big fan of this dock. It's a pretty simple design and can be expanded to hold up to four controllers for different consoles. The xbox one variety comes with a rechargeable battery pack that fits in where the AA's would go.
Only complaint is the LED charging/charged indicator is a bit too bright.

That's why you get one of these. If you get in the habit of dropping the controller on the dock while it's not in use, you never have to worry about batteries. That's the same dock I have and it's done me good.

The battery pack last a long time and you just plug in and keep playing while it charges (charges fast also). Had for the 360 and worked perfectly for 6 years. Had it for xb1 since day 1.

I've had so many problems with the charging cables with the controllers. I picked this up and works great https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Controller-Battery-Charger-designed-original/dp/B071LQD2XD/ref=sxin_3?crid=2V7GN7NLP5UAK&keywords=xbox+rechargeable+battery+station&pd_rd_i=B071LQD2XD&pd_rd_r=5d115ba1-3fb8-4053-981b-7fb097fbc63e&pd_rd_w=ERxTL&pd_rd_wg=Qez6G&pf_rd_p=2f202bc2-a141-4742-bd82-9252d5485b34&pf_rd_r=9RR1Y41MH27TKSB3Y5MD&qid=1556927633&s=gateway&sprefix=xbox+recharge%2Caps%2C170

I have this. It isn't too bulky, plus it came with 2 battery packs. The controllers charge from the top.
yes, cable is ncluded i hope.. so thats all... if you want to play wireless, you would need:
this, and this
To get an xbox one controller to play wirelessly on PC you need this one. It comes with a dongle.
I just got that one and the play and charge kit, which gives you a recharging battery pack for it. The pack will only charge if you use the micro USB cable that came with the kit, FYI. I felt like a dunce when I finally figured out that's why it wasn't charging,
best 20$ ever spent

havent tried yet, but i found this:

I can give it a shot when I get home, think I have a bluetooth adapter floating around somewhere.
i dont think youll need to connect them through usb first as youll be making a connection via bluetooth
there's only one micro-usb port in the top. the bottom is a jack for headphones and a plug for controller accessories (such as xb1 keypad)
i highly recommend the play and charge kit for charging, the battery lasts a long time wirelessly (longer than ps4--i have both systems):

Yes that was the one I ordered. I got mine straight from amazon though. The supplier listed has a 4.7/5 rating. You shouldnt worry too much.
I would reccomend this one as well:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/NYKO-Charge-Base-XBOX-ONE/dp/B00KHW54FC/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_1_0
It is cheaper and the order is fulfilled by amazon, so you wont have to worry about the supplier being sketchy.
I have the [Nkyo Charge Base] (http://www.amazon.com/Nyko-Charge-Base-Xbox-One/dp/B00FLLFJE0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1417985706&sr=8-1&keywords=xbox+one+charger+dock)
Does anybody know if this would work with the Scuf?
I think you have the Nyko Charge Base. Can you confirm this? Is your unit USB-powered or AC powered?
After tomorrow. I will have had these for 1 year. And they are working great so far. Avoid those third party charger/stands. They are cool but if u have more controllers than stands. U start shuffling the batteries around when your low.

It’s just because Microsoft doesn’t do an internal battery on their controllers. I don’t mind. These battery packs and the stand have served me well for years and I can game all day.

I have nothing but good things to say about the nyko one. It lights up a controllers corresponding front panel to indicate when charging starts, the battery packs last for hours and hours and hours and nothing about the setup is gaudy or obnoxious.
I've been using mine everyday since 2013 and have had zero issues. http://www.amazon.com/Nyko-Charge-Base-Xbox-One/dp/B00FLLFJE0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1450171633&sr=8-1&keywords=xbox+one+nyko+charge
If you haven't gotten one yet, I use a rechargeable battery pack with the charge cable. This way you can play if your controller runs low on juice instead of just charging and waiting.

I guess I was thinking something more like this:
https://www.amazon.com/Nyko-Charge-Base-Xbox-One/dp/B00FLLFJE0/
it doesn't remove your ability to swap batteries on the fly, but you could still have a set that is easily charged without popping them out of the controller. I rarely play more than 2 to 3 hours at a time, and then they sit overnight. Dropping them on a charging dock would make life simple. With this solution I doubt I would ever run out during mid play.
Your right, its really hard and time consuming to swap in two batteries into a controller and put the two old batteries in a charger.
But yeah it is convenient to have a dock, nyko makes one that is fine.
I have this one
https://www.amazon.com/Nyko-Charge-Base-Xbox-One/dp/B00FLLFJE0
It worked well for a couple months, and then stopped working. I emailed their support and they sent me a shipping label to ship it back to them. 3 days after they received it, i got a new one at my door.
Can recommend the charging dock by Power A/BD&A. Works perfectly, looks great - http://www.amazon.com/BD-Charging-Station-Xbox-One/dp/B00NQT48NM/

You will have to buy a replacement PSU as isn't dual voltage, but it'll work and you'll be able to buy US games fine.
Here's the one I got (I recently moved from UK to US):

Eneloops are probably the best or the Amazon basics which are the same thing. Those are the best if you just want rechargeable AA batteries.
But... I prefer the Nyko rechargeable battery and charge dock. Just drop your controller on here when your done and never worry about it again. I have this charger and have never run the battery out in a single play session.
Amazon link
I purchased the Nyko Charge Base. The charge on the batteries lasts for many hours, and it doesn't take long to chhrge them, around an hour for a full charge.

I haven't used either of these, so I cannot recommend them; but they are compatible with the stereo headset adapter (unlike the two that have been recommended so far).
Regarding the headset, if you have the money, I'd suggest the Turtle Beach Ear Force XO Seven.
>I've got a pair myself and it's absolutely the coolest thing I have for my Xbox One. See, the Xbox One will actually send game audio over the wireless controller. This means that you can turn off or mute your sound system and only use the headset for both chat and game audio. It's been incredibly handy for me when I want to play a game, but my wife is asleep. Even better is that I can watch Netflix or YouTube the same way. The adapter it comes with has buttons that allow you to turn down the game audio relative to chat volume as well, so if your game audio is overbearing or you only want to use the headset for chat, you can.
>Now, there is a cheaper version of the XO Seven called the XO Four. It runs about eighty bucks, but it doesn't have a noise cancelling mic. Depending on how loud your sound system is, this may or may not be a big deal for you. Regardless of which one you choose, they both come with the stereo headset adapter so everything you need is included.
>You will probably have to update your controller's firmware before you use it, though. It's easy, and the instructions for doing so are included with the headset. Just make sure you've got a micro USB cable handy.
I'd also suggest the Nyko Charge Base for Xbox One.
> Nothing beats rechargeable batteries. Having a place to keep your controller and charge it is just awesome. I've had mine since the Xbox One was released and I've never once had any issues or even had to bother charging my controller in the middle of a play session. It's great to be able to set the controller in the charging dock when you aren't using it and have a fully-charged battery the next time you use it.
It turns out that I was forgetting to hold my butts. Lol
Actually, it looks like the issue was with the rechargeable battery pack I am using (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00DBDPOZ4/).
I put some regular AA batteries in, and problem solved. Nothing obviously wrong with battery pack, and I didn’t have this issue with the One S.

Here you go M8.
I think its the dock thats broken, as soon as I put them on to charge the charging light goes on for a half second then thats it. It has two separate places to put the controller to charge and neither of them work. I have a portable charger but no cable to connect it to the controller, so I was just curious to see if it'd work before I go out and buy one
its one of these BTW

Here is a US store link, in case you're outside the UK.
I bought this one too and have really liked it so far. After I bought it, I also saw that it was being bundled with official Halo 5 controllers too, so it seems that MS thinks this is a good charger as well.
I was looking for a decent controller charger / battery charger as I already have the play and charge kit. I have two controllers.
I had an ORB one for the 360 but the battery life tended to be poor with the custom batteries, so I grabbed this officially licensed one (as Amazon advertised), and it's pretty good.
Normal battery life, but as I have two controllers I just take one off and put the other one on charge. You can also push down on the edges of the charging stand to have the controllers just 'sit there' instead of being charged, really useful. Batteries seem great so far. Not particularly cheap though.
Another option is a rechargeable battery plug. You plug it into the wall and just put your rechargeable batteries into it. They're not exactly expensive. Edit: There's also those USB rechargeable batteries, they look cool, but I haven't tried them.

Ordered an Xbox charge and play kit because it's among the cheaper things to purchase :3
Plus I needed one so I don't have to go through so many batteries playing Overwatch and Destiny.

Legit, stfu if you don't know shit.
I vote for the play and charge kit. first, the official one uses a Lithium Ion battery, which is nice. second, swapping batteries in the middle of a gaming session is less convenient than plugging a cord in.

Get one of these instead. Bonus you now always know where your chargers are because you lay them down on the base when your done playing.
