The only thing I would change would be that the bar coincidingly turn off with the wii. I like that the wii sensor bar is wireless and that although it's slightly larger than the sensor bar that came with the wii, it still fits into the same holder. I also like that the bar reminds you by a loudish beeping should you forget to turn it off.
The bright blue light is a little distracting. Excellent wireless bar for my Wii. Works great.
I left some batteries in it for 6 months and they were dead when I pulled the senor bar out to use it again. While it is possible to build your own homemade one as many people online have done, it is not cost effective to do so.The wireless sensor bar has been very useful with a projector setup, but it tends to suck down the batteries. If you do need this device, I would recommend only keeping batteries in it when you need to use it, because it drains them even when it's off. I purchased this product with the intent to use it with a projector at events and parties. As most people know by now, the Wii sensor bar is just IR LED lights.
I guess they never expected to have to replace the batteries when they designed it. I just wanted to mention that if you buy one of these, DON'T STICK IT TO THE TOP OF THE TV with the peel and stick pads that are already in place on the unit. :-) (a cat, in my case) Good product overall, happy with purchase. Anyway, it does what it's supposed to, seems to work better than the original, and it doesn't have a cord that could be chewed up by a cat or a vacuum cleaner (seems to be a recurring theme in these reviews. The half-wit that designed this product put the BATTERY DOOR ON THE BOTTOM. So, if you stick it to the top of the TV, you have to tear it loose when the battery runs out.
Batteries last for weeks even though we put in a good 1-2hours a day. With the idea of Wii being active; we often had issues with being close enough to the sensor bar and yet far enough away to avoid each other and the screen. This wii bar made it all a go and now we are wii-ing it up.
