But the battery is superfluous to Windows, since Windows cannot work with a wireless Xbox One controller; it has to be plugged in via USB.

Knowledge Base. What is the monetary value of volunteer time? The estimated value of volunteer time for 2015 is $23.56 per hour, according to Independent Sector, a coalition of charities, foundations, corporations, and individuals that publishes research important to the nonprofit sector.
Another way to measure the impact of volunteers is to take a look at statistics like hours served and the economic value of volunteer time. According to the Corporation for National and Community Service, 61.8 million individuals in the United States contributed 8 billion hours of volunteerism in 2008 alone. Volunteers help to keep our neighborhoods, streets, parks, rivers, green spaces, and water clean and safe for everyone. 2  Volunteers tutor, teach, mentor, coach, and support young people with everything from math homework to dealing with personal crises to football and soccer tourneys.
