hey, so you know you can cut your normal Bars cable and hook it up to a 9 volt![]()

Notice the date of the first post....
7.5 volts would be perfect for a remote control car battery.

i have one it geart to have

Yes, you can cut the cord and use a 9V battery to make the original sensor bar wireless. However, you can also make one easily using 2 little light bulbs or flash light. Just use your WiiMote in calibration mode to identify compatible light source. Then two of them in a 10-12" distance. It is funny that the sensor bar is actually not a sensor, while the wiimote is. FYI. the backlight of a LCD display is sufficient. I do have a wireless sensor bar just for the convenience of setting it up with a portable projector.

I've tested a couple tv remotes and it works fine. If the tv remotes aren't sucking up any battery life, then why does the sensor bar need batteries?

The sensor bar is always on, whereas the TV remotes kinda "sleep" until you press a buttonOriginally Posted by sherwood3570
