This Xbox One battery pack that charges in 60 seconds sounds dangerous

The Xbox One controller is a great device, but many people hate fussing with AA batteries and others hate having to wait an hour or so for a battery pack to charge. Well, one company claims to have a solution that could solve both of those problems.

Performance Design Products claims that its new Xbox One battery pack can fully charge in 60 seconds (via WinBeta). PDP says that you can get up to go to the bathroom, plug in your dead gamepad, and by the time that you get back (please wash your hands), you’ll have a controller that’s ready to last another 12 hours. If we were still in the 1990s, here is where I would make a reference to Tim Allen and “more power.” Instead, I’ll simply point out that charging something that fast sounds scary — although that’s probably just because I fear change.
