Sensor Bar with power supply ?

01-09-2013, 10:11 PM #1

As the title said, I'm trying to look for a sensor bar with power supply. All i find in eBay is original wii sensor or sensor bar with battery. I just want to plug it in, leave it there and never have to worry about the battery running out. Thanks.

I'd expect that most non-battery-powered sensor bars are made to be plugged into either the Wii's sensor bar power port or one of its USB ports. I don't see why anyone would bother making one that plugs into a normal power outlet when those two ports are normally available, at least. I'd recommend finding one that plugs in via USB or just dealing with the hassle of batteries. (Or build a USB- or wall-outlet-powered bar yourself, if you feel like dabbling in basic electrical engineering.)

Search "sensor bar usb" via ebay

Be careful with searches though, not all sensor bars advertised as having USB plugs do. Specifically the "Memorex Wii Wireless Sensor Bar" is frequently advertised as having USB support, but doesn't.

failing that you could do what I did.

Convert the battery powered one to usb. (assumign its 5 volts)

Just grab a usb cable and connect the red to one end of the battery connecter, and the black to the other, ignore other usb wires.
