To charge the PSP, you just set it on the dock. There is nothing to plug in, snap into, line up, etc. It just rests on the pins perfectly. Felt on the bottom of the cradle helps to keep it from sliding around on your desk when you rest and unrest the gaming device on it. As an added bonus, the PSP rests at the perfect angle for viewing the display. This allows for easy movie viewing.
The PSP Power Charging Cradle has a 2.5 fast hour charging circuit built in, so you'll not have to wait too long to get back to playing your favorite games. I really like this accessory as it takes no effort to use, looks great and is inexpensive.
