How long is the sensor bar cable? I'll be getting a Wii for Christmas and need to know if I'll need to rearrange some furniture.
-
Nevermind, I found on another web-site that it's 138 inches.

incidentally, you can build your own from IR LEDs; the Wii can't detect wether the sensor bar itself is connected.

Interesting page.
Did anyone watch the video the author added to that link? It seems that his Wii has a channel that I don't and not aware of. It's located down one row, and three channels to the right.

I was reading the comments left by people talking about building your own sensor bar. Here is an interesting one that I found:
My company already has some of these in production using a similar method. We actually used a 9-volt with it, lasts about 72+ hours. We need to sell about 500 more units to drop the price significantly, so check us out :-) http://www.wirelesssensorbar.com (http://www.wirelesssensorbar.com/)
This one is a little expensive. Hopefully a name brand company will release one with better battery life. I'm also hoping they can make one with better range. Optimal range is supposed to be 3-8 feet. From where I set it will be 10 feet. I'm not sure if the extra two feet will make any difference. I guess I'll find out when I get mine at Christmas.

I usually sit rather far away whenever I play my Wii, like around 10 feet or so. It doesn't work as sharply from that far away, but it's still very easy and enjoyable from that distance. The cursor will just get a little jumpy when you make close movements when you are that far away.

That's good to hear. :) If it gets to bad I can find something to set it on, to temporarily move it closer.
