Hi,
I have a MadCatz wireless nunchuk for Nintendo Wii, the same as this one on amazon:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B002ECE8XM/
It has always taken a while to charge up, and today it did not ever seem to finish charging (red LED goes out when it finishes). So I disassembled it. It uses a Lithium Ion battery, and I measured it at 4.29V, that is after resting about 30 minutes. Very dangerous!!!
I wonder how many other cheap consumer devices with li-ion cells do this... maybe cheap devices should stick with NiMH cells.
I will be disposing of the device.
