What recommendations are there for 3rd party sensor bars? I'd prefer one that plugs into a wall but am not object to a battery powered model. Price is the largest factor.
I don't care for the string-like power cord that connects the sensor bar to the system. I'm afraid I'll accidentally rip the thing or something moving my TV one day.

My supplied one is fine. I'm just afraid I might accidentally rip the cord on it out of carelessness if I ever move the TV or something.

I don't know where the lag would be, as an IR LED is universal, as is light...

Lol, I dunno actually.
What I meant by it is that IR light from a wireless one is exactly the same as a wired one....
Whoever had a friend with a wireless one, switch back and forth and see if it does anything.

If the IR lights in the sensor bar are blinking on and off, even in a rapid manner, it could affect the remote's spatial sensing.
