Sensor Bar Extension Cable 50ft for Wii & Wii U - Nextronics

I wanted to show WII screen on wall opposite the projector and Wii unit, it was a pain in the neck to set up the games over my shoulder. Now I just point and click as it is intended

The Wiimote connects to the Wii console via Bluetooth. The sensor itself connects to the console directly with a thin wire. Check... The Wiimote receives an IR signal from the sensor which moves the very jittery cursor (hand) on screen...Note sensor is a misnomer here and this is probably backward from what most people believe (since the Wiimote is a remote-like device, it is rational to assume that IT sends an IR signal like most remotes, to the sensor, but no, it is the opposite). Its easier to just call the sensor an IR emmiter and the Wiimote a receiver to make sense of this... I dont understand why Nintendo ever did this really. Its kind of stupid when you think about it...Bluetooth, IR, Wireless and Wired all in one low tech device. You dont need all that crap do ya? Not really. Why not just have only Bluetooth or IR in the Wiimote and have the sensor in the Wii itself? How bout a AC-powered sensor? Whatever. I didnt design it... Its all fine and good and how my setup was working previously. Then I moved the Wii into a home theater room with a semi-pro/pro setup. I needed to run a cable connecting the sensor (located where a projector screen was) up a wall over a ceiling, and down to a component closet (on the side). I needed approx 30 of cable to do this, thus I bought this product. What happened? Well, I can report this cable DOES in fact work. However, it appears from what I now read online that the sensor itself can become insensitive beyond approx 6-10. In my case it does in fact become non-sensitive beyond 6. So I cant fathom why this cable even exists? It works, but is completely useless at its max distance (or even before) apparently by design (for some users)...Other users have reported successful results so take all the reviews into account... This review is dedicated to Brian Banks. Thanks.

I ran this into the attic and down, and tied the cord carefully into the bar that holds up our projector screen. Much better than the wireless bar, which runs through batteries.

Used this to extend our sensor bar cable. Have had no issues and been using it for 6 months. Would recommend.

this extension cable fits perfectly into the wiiu, nothing loose. a must if you plan on using a projector. The cord has the same thickness as the wii sensor bars so make sure you hide it someplace where it wont easily get cut or tripped over. overall, this is a great product.

Very good!!

Works great!

We tried it on our old Wii and it works great.

I used this to extend my Wii U Sensor Bar from my LCD at the front of the room to a closet around the corner with all of my audiovisual gear. I highly recommend this cable over the battery powered wireless sensor bars as they all have pretty terrible battery life. This worked perfectly the first time and hasnt had any trouble.

Long distance...no problem! Impressive.
