Let me start off by saying that I know next to nothing about electronics (if you haven't already guessed that )...

I noticed in a couple of other threads that some folks claim that adding extra batteries to their controllers increased the range. One poster said that adding a 3rd AAA battery almost doubled the range. Are other folks who have made "extra battery in the controller" mods seeing the same effect?

Now, I assume that the mod for the AC adapter we're discussing is aimed at just increasing the power to the charger (right?), but would it be possible to do this mod in such a way that extra juice is pumped into the controller's PCB too (keep in mind that I already said I don't know anything about electronics)? If that isn't a non-sensical question, would that be a bad thing to do? Would it actually do anything to help the range?

Thanks in advance for any advice...I gotta say that one of the main things I love about my ZZ is mod-ing it!
