PlayStation 5 DualSense Charging Station

Product Information

You can charge a PS5 controller without the console by plugging it into a USB wall plug or charging station. However, turn on the blue light bars on both sides and it instantly becomes a talking point because it really looks great. To make things even better, the lightbars are touch-sensitive, so you can turn them on or off as you wish. The blue light is exactly the same as the one on the PS5 itself, so it matches very well.

The PS5 delivers 3D audio for enhanced surround sound to make games more realistic, letting you place where your enemies are lurking to take them out. While that sounds great for those of us who have multichannel speaker systems, others using just their television speakers probably won’t be able to get the same effect. If you’re not ready to throw down the money for multiple speakers or a fancy soundbar and AV receiver, the PS5 Pulse 3D Wireless Headset might be just what you need. It is essential to maintain your PS5 controller’s battery life by using the correct charging methods. Here are some tips for proper charging that can help ensure your controller is functioning at its best.

To recognize these issues, first connect the USB-C cable to your DualSense controller and the other end to your PS5 console or a suitable USB-C charger with at least 5 volts of power. The light bar on the controller should display a pulsing orange color, indicating that it is charging. Now, the transparent plastic does admittedly look cheap, but it’s there for a functional reason, too. The LED lights are right behind it, which means when the controller is charging, the entire section glows red. When it’s full, it changes to blue light, and both are impossible to miss. You’ll know when your controllers are charged pretty easily. When it comes to PS5 controller chargers, most of them do just that – charge your controller.
