After gamers uncovered the dark magic behind the Wii's sensor bar (it's an IR emitter), they came up with some wonderfully impractical wireless alternatives. Nyko aims to appease these wire-loathing Wii owners with its slightly more functional Wireless Sensor Bar. It has the same unobtrusive design as Nintendo’s sensor and seems to have better range. An optional warning tone sounds and shuts the bar off automatically after 1 or 2 hours of playtime, which is good since it drains four (!) AA batteries after 30 hours of use. And it won't set off the fire alarm.__
