I bought this for travel. I was about to be stuck on a plane for 8 hours. I liked the idea of just using some AA instead of using a computer for charging. I was disipointed to see that after just 7 10 min. of plugging it into my 3DS system, my screen started flashing. Thinking it was a fluke, I disconected the unit and tried it again. The same thing happend. My unit showed that the battey on the 3DS was charging, it's just my screen was flashing. So I got creative.
I had previously purchased a second charger for the 3DS, this one actually attahces to the back of your unit and needs to be charged via a computer or USB port (CTA Digital Nintendo 3DS Power Supply and Charging Dock). So I hooked that charger up to the back of my 3DS and pluged in this one in to the back of the CTA Digital (which had already gone dead due to previous use). My 3DS showed it was charging and my screen stopped flashing.
Not sure how well or what it would do to your 3DS unit if it was shut off and charging. I have not tried that yet. I am sure it would be fine, after all that is what it was made for. Maybe it just pulls too much juice when your playing it, while it is charging.
As for the rating, I'm not sorry I bought it, but a little disapointed in the flashing screen. I have played my 3DS while charging, before and not had that issue, so I do not think it was my system.
