Ok so you pretty much have to use the ps3 itself to charge your ps3 controllers.
Then plug the usb end of your charger cable into one of the usb slots on the front of your console and the smaller end of the charger into the slot on the front of your controller.
But when the ps3 is on standby mode you can plug the ps3 controller into a computer s usb port while the computer is on to charge it.
