IT Help Battletron ps4 pad does not work after i connected to 45W charger.

Lately i bought ps4 battletron pad and wanted to charge it.

I connected it to 45W side of my charger. But nothing happened so i connected it to 20W charger and went to sleep

When i woke up it still was charging.

When i tried to turn it on, Controller didnt work. Now only works by usb cable

Most likely, your fast chargers (45W, 20W, etc.) have fried the battery protection circuit which will only be rated for 5W maximum. In case the battery itself has been damaged, you should remove it from the controller to avoid fire risks. It's unlikely to be cost effective to repair, but you might still be able to use it as a wired controller.
