Try this out.Go unplug your sensor bar, then turn on your Wii. Take two candles and light them above your TV, and space them about the same length as the bar. Move the wiimote around. Notice anything? If you did it right, then your wii cursor should be moving around. You might think its crazy, but it works. All the sensor bar does is shoot 4 IR lights. The Wiimote does the sensing. Candles make IR light so there you go, home made wireless, no battery using, no electricity using, sensor bar. You can see for yourself on Youtube.com. Type in the search bar: Sensor Bar Candles. You can also do this with a good flashlight but not the best. Just thought I share this.Thanks for reading.

Very cool, until your strap breaks and the wiimote goes flying and knocks over the candles and sets your house on fire. :wink:

all the sensor bar does is let the remote know where it is in relation to the TV. the cord is just there for power.

im gonna try and rig the candlebar tonight.
