Finally! :) I have one with borked USB port (I think the 1537 one), if it works this may make it useful again.

Thanks for working on this!

At least the original xbox one controller used AA batteries by default, and had an optional accessory rechargeable battery pack to replace the AA batteries. Maybe the later models are different; I don't have an xbox anymore.

Replacing the AA-bateries?

At least my xbox one controller has a slot for two aa bateries on the back.

Interesting. My controller that I got only a few months after xbox one launch has a proprietary rechargeable battery in that slot
