If you're feeling slightly adventurous... (DBO)

I love my DS4 (other than it not just using AAs, damnit!) so I'm not really in the market for a new controller anyway.

Assuming that your issue is with wanting a longer battery, and not just from wanting longer charge cables, there is a fairly simple way to double the DS4's battery life.

I haven't tried swapping out a battery pack, but the DS4 is definitely the easiest controller to get into and modify (I've made it all the way to taking apart the touchpad for a simple ribbon repair). A handful of small phillips screws, and it's at your mercy...
