How Do You Charge A PS3 Controller With A PC?
The PlayStation 3’s controllers feature a built-in wireless system, and they are quite an upgrade over previous PlayStation controllers. The PS3’s “Sixaxis” controller offers motion-sensing capabilities, and the “DualShock 3” controller adds a rumble feature along with the motion-sensing technology. These controllers come with a built-in lithium ion battery that offers about 20 hours of gameplay on a full charge. You can use your PC to charge your PS3 controller when it runs low on power. Turn your PC on. The PS3 controller will require a power feed from the PC in order for it to charge. Find an open USB port on your PC.

This cable will have the larger USB plug on one side, and an oddly-shaped mini-USB plug on the other side. Plug the mini-USB end of the PlayStation 3 USB cable
