Worth the Points [Posted on 2008-08-22]
I got this from http://www.rewards1.com/index.php?referrer_id=341134 for doing some surveys and it was totally worth spending 18 points for. Its better than the one that came with the wii because those cords alway look so thin and I'm always afraid the cord will eventually snap. Although you always have to turn the sensor bar off when your done using it I think it's still worth the points.....maybe not worth $18 but deffinately worth the points.
I should have bought this months ago [Posted on 2008-08-28]
We had problems with our regular sensor bar from the very beginning. We were never able to create our Miis. But, we've had no problems since we got this new wireless sensor bar. It works great. My only complaint is you can really go through the batterys.
Works great. [Posted on 2008-08-29]
I bought this Wii Wireless Sensor Bar because my cat chewed through the wire on the sensor bar that came with the Wii. This one runs on batteries, but at least there isn't a wire for the cat to chew. There is a timer you can set so the bar doesn't stay on and using up the batteries when you're not using it. One night my husband played the Wii before bed and after we'd turned out the lights and gone to sleep the alarm on the sensor bar went off - it was loud enough to wake us up and the Wii is in a different floor of the house than our bedroom. So turn that off when you're done if you don't want the alarm going off.
Incrediable!!!!!!! [Posted on 2008-09-16]
This product works great, I have it 23 ft away from my Wii and it picks up the motion 100%, no lag, no miscues. This was well worth the money and I have now wires hanging around to boot. I would say if there is a down fall and I don't think that it is but it takes 4 AA batteries, but it last an incredible 25 hrs minimum, depends on batteries if you but AA Lithium batteries you'll get more time, but Lithium batteries aren't rechargeable like the regular AA's are, which I recommend getting 2 sets of, one to play with and one to charged up and waiting to go.
Works great! [Posted on 2008-09-30]
I have a projector setup for my home theater so the sensor bar needed to sit 15 feet away from the wii itself. The cable on the included sensor bar wasn't going to cut it. This wireless sensor bar did the trick nicely. At first the pointer was jumpy when I sat across the room but then I discovered there is a sensitivity setting in the wii menu and everything works perfectly now.
In my opinion it would be nice if the sensor bar had a way to plug it in so you don't have to run it off batteries. I actually ended up installing a power jack into mine - it took a little drilling, soldering, and super glue but it works nicely now. No batteries. :)
