Need help with IR Emitter

08-20-2011, 12:35 PM #1

Ok so i was wondering does the candle trick work? Also Could I use normal LEDs on a afterglow controller(xbox 360 model) to detect where the wii's at? or would i be fine just without a sensor bar? I will be playing the CoD series so i will need to move wiimote around to aim. Thanks!

The candle trick does work. However, you cannot use normal LEDs, you have to get IR LEDs. They are the same price as regular LEDs but you'd have to hook them up yourself.

Thanks. I just went and bought a wireless wii sensor bar from Gamestop. I appreciate your help. Also I tried the candles and it works but not that great lol.
