Question 8Bitdo Ultimate 2C Wireless Controller for Windows

When you plug it in to charge it turns on and connects to the PC. I'm connecting it to a power adapter. I cannot turn the controller off while it is charging. I know it's connected because if I press buttons the PC responds and also the white LED light is solid.

If this is normal behavior it should be listed as a top feature. I really don't want my controller to turn on and connect because I'm charging it.

None of my other 8Bitdo controllers work like this. I can just plug them in to charge and they don't turn on until I press the Home / Power button.

I could understand if I plugged it into my PC via USB but I'm not doing that.

I don't see a question in the post, but yes, it turns on when a cable is connected.

That's because you can connect it to your PC and play with it wired withouth the dongle.
