I bought a Gameware (UK third party brand) wireless sensor bar but it doesn't work well at close range. 2 candles work better.

I'm thinking of trying the duracell wireless bar and also the nintendo ultimate wireless sensor bar.

Do any of you guys use Dolphin sitting at your PC at pretty close range to the monitor and sensor? Do you have a wireless sensor bar you could recommend or do you know if either of the above wold be suitable?

Thanks!

I can recommend the sensorbar from Duracell. It's very powerful and accurate Wink
Thanks, and do you use it sitting in front of your PC?
If you got a sensor bar you don't need to be stuck to your screen any more Big Grin
Unfortunately sitting far back isn't an option for me which is why I wondered if anyone else has experience of using a sensor bar at close range. I use a 24" monitor and have limited space so need to be close.

How close are you?
If you're so close to your screen a sensor bar is useless.
Which games have you tried?
Just the normal distance you would be from a monitor when using a PC. Have tried Mario Galaxy 2 and found that at close range the wireless sensor wasn't that great (candles were better) - thus my question to see if there were wireless sensors that worked better at close range than others.
Just wanted to update this.

I got the Duracell wireless sensor bar which uses batteries. It is perfect. Works superbly at close range while sitting at the pc. It has an on/off switch to save battery life.

I had ordered the wii ultra sensor bar but won't even be opening it now to try it and will send it back, the Duracell fits my needs perfectly and comes highly recommended for anyone else who sits close to their PC while using Dolphin.
That's why I use a wireless sensorbar from Duracell Tongue
I bought it based on your recommendation and can endorse your original statement Big Grin
