Product Description
The Nintendo Wii Wireless Sensor bar means that the Wii remote sensor bar, which as standard has a cable that trails to the console and is only around a meter and a half long meaning the standard sensor bar has to be with in that diustance to the console and is also recomended to be sitting directly above or below your TV, can now be situated anywhere thus your console doesn't have to be sitting next to your TV any more.

1 out of 5 stars Waste of money   December 16, 2008

I got this product about six months ago after my wii's original sensor bar was broken in an accident. It worked perfectly for a while but it's ability to place the pointer on the screen got worse and worse until it broke down totally.

Not only did I waste my money on this but I also had to waste money on the large number of batteries required to power the thing.

Very simply it does what it says on the box. Inserted batteries, worked first time no setting up required, seems to work better than the original sensor.

Although I have the proper wired sensor bar that comes with the Wii, I occasionally take my wii round to friend's houses and use it on other tvs in the house - and this wireless bar is perfect for such occasions. Whilst it is a little hungry on the batteries (I'd suggest buying a few packs of rechargeable batteries) and a bit bigger than I expected, it works perfectly with no problem at all to set up (just press the on button). Apart from the Wii itself and the controllers, this is probably one of the best accessories I have bought and would have no problem recommending it for use as a secondary sensor bar for when you are using your Wii away from the normal tv you use it on if you don't want to have to unplug and reposition the wired sensor bar all the time.


1 out of 5 stars Just use two lit candles!   December 19, 2007
  15 out of 49 found this review helpful

The bar is just a infrared transmitter, it has two points of infra red.

Bluetooth is what actually makes the control wireless, infra red is used as a locator.

Two lit candles on the top of the tv will do the same thing, your wii remote will pick up the infra red from the candles (heat).

However if your tv cant have two little tealight candles on it or you fear/liable to burn your house down then this item is a more expensive version, batteries cost more than candles! lol.But are safer.

The bar you get with the machine does the trick though.

Pls note that my sensor bar is powered by 6 AAA batteries and not the AA as suggested above. I suggest checking the unit itself, before spending a small fortune on 2 sets of the wrong size rechargable batteries and not relying on the info posted above.
