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.

I also purchased a pair of Sony Controller cables like the original equipment at amazon for only $10 although sometimes the price increases
