Wireless Sensor Bar Help please!

i bought a snakebyte wireless sensor bar from amazon. about 3€. works great without being afraid to burn down everything .

Hello,
I have tried the two TV Remotes idea, I put them in fron of each other and put a heavy book on them but unfortunately when I press the Home Button in the Wiimote, the hand cursor is not appearing and I can't move in the Home Screen!!

Does the Home Screen menu work in Dolphin?

[AmgedIsmail]

How can I thank you guys!!!!!
The candles REALLY worked!!!
I can't BELIEVE!!
I can now move the cursor....

But I burnt my finger while I am lighting up the candle with the little cigarette lighter The Fire breath of the other lighten candle was toward my finger and my finger is really hot and pain now.

I am using this candle...
How long (many hours) can it be on?
When should I blow off the fire to prevent any dangerous situation, thanks!

As long as the flame isn't touching anything, and you don't knock the candle over, you can keep them lit until they burn out.

this whole candle things is brilliant, but a little dangerous. Is there any other way to make a ghetto sensor bar other than the tv remote Idea? what other light sources emit infrared light?

Yes I have tried two tv remotes but it didn't work..

If you won't ever use the TV remotes you could steal the LEDs from them, and build a 'real' bar, but ghetto style.

[AmgedIsmail]

And how is that done??

[AnyOldName3]

open the 2 remotes, take out the LEDs, and put them in two holes in something (about 20 cm apart). Connect the +ve end of one LED to the -end of the other with a wire. Connect the red wire out of a USB cable to the positive end of one of the two LEDs (the one with nothing attached to its +ve end). Connect a resistor (about 90 ohms) to the -ve end which isn't being used. Connect the other end of the resistor to the black wire from inside the USB cable.

Then plug it in, and look at it through a digital camera. You should see both LEDs light up. If when you point a Wiimote at it it doesn't have a working cursor, then the LEDs are probably too dim, and you need two (or four) more LEDs on each side (which will mean you'll need a weaker resistor).

Sounds like a difficult idea!!

I wonder if there another way than the candle which emits IR light??
