r/playstation on Reddit: How much time do your PS5 controllers take to fully charge?
February 2, 2025 -

When I charge my controllers directly with the PS5 on rest mode They usually take between 2 hr and 15 min to 2hr and 30 min.

However when I have them charge directly from the outlet they never fully charge, I have spent even 4 hours with the controller charging and the orange light never turns off. Does not matter if it’s a certified cable or if it’s fast charging.

I wish the controller can charge as fast as connected to the PS5 if it is connected to the outlet. ( i don’t have a charging dock)

How Long Does It Take to Charge a PS5 Controller?
March 5, 2025 - Of course, the power source will also determine how fast you can charge your PS5 DualSense controller. A standard USB-C will offer 5V at 1.5 A, which translates to 7.5W, which will provide steady charging. A weak USB port will deliver a slower charge. Not all USB-C cables are created the same, and some are indeed better quality than others. The poor-quality ones will not provide sufficient charge, which will only prolong charging time.

What can I do about my PS5 controllers? I own 2 and an official Sony PS5 charging station for them. However, despite letting them charge for hours overnight, they only last 20-30 minutes when I use them. Are the batteries destroyed from leaving the controllers to charge for such a long time?
