I love the DS4 and, like a lot of people, find the only real negative to be battery life.
Instead of swapping the battery for a higher mah third party one, I bought this battery pack. Bad move.
When the DS4's battery is running low you flick a switch on the pack (which is attached to the usb port on the front of the controller) which will charge the battery while you play. Unfortunately I hadn't thought through how the DS4 works on PC before buying it:
Plug a usb cable into the DS4 and attach it to your PC to charge, turning the DS4 (presumably) into a wired controller. With the battery pack switched on and the controller now in 'wired' mode it loses connection because it's not attached to the PC.
I'm posting this either as a word of warning for others or in case I've missed a setting in DS4Windows - I use the Jays2Kings version of the drivers.
