It does not take long for it to get enough of a charge for the red lights to work. Plus when the item is plugged in it has power and will work as a controller while it is charging.

When you charge your PS3 controller does the PS3 have to be turned on?

Yes if you are using the PS3 to charge it. You should also know that if you do not go to your settings menu and set the PS3 to automatically turn off the controller it will always need a charge because it will stay on when you turn your PS3 off.


How do you add a second wireless control to a PS3?

Your controller should come without any charge, after you have charged the controller it will be connected to the PS3. If you had it with charge for some reason, just connect it to your PS3 with the USB cable.


When you charge your ps3 controller will it still keep the playstation on without turning off?

No you need to set your PS3 to automatically turn off your controllers and if you plan on charging them between uses set the PS3 auto off for long enough to allow the charge and make sure you do not turn the PS3 system off when you quit playing. If you turn the PS3 off it will not charge the controller and then go off. My Sony HDTV has a USB port and I use that to keep the controller charged as any USB port can be used to charge a controller. I also purchased a pair of Sony Controller cables like the original equipment at amazon for only $10 although sometimes the price increases

How do you charge a PlayStation 3 controller?

Charging a PlayStation 3 controller is a lot simpler than you might think it is. With a PlayStation 3 comes a cord that plugs a controller into the system. Hook it up and your controller is already charging. If it is not, one of three things is happening: 1) The cord is broken or faulty. 2) The controller is broken or faulty, or the battery needs to be replaced. 3) The system is turned off. If you address all these problems and the controller is still not charging, contact Sony.
