i think the ps3 has to be on because the lights on controler don't flash when the ps3 is off but i'm not positive.

just buy a second controler that way odds are one always has a full charge, that or just plug it in and watch a tv show it'll be charged by the time its over.

It does need to be turned on, though you can also charge it via the USB ports on your PC too.
