Wii Sensor Bar Replacement

[BadMoon]

Does anyone know where I can get a replacement? I don't want the wireless nor the huge ones that they are selling in stores. I just want an official nintendo replacement. However, I can't find one!

The wii IR bar is simply two IR LEDs. The bar only draws power from the wii, it does not exchange data.

You can substitute two candles for the sensor bar, and many guys have used a couple of christmas tree lights.

There's homebrew projects to build battery powered IR bars if you google around. They're very simple it terms of electronic parts. You can build one for ~10 bucks.

All the Nintendo Online store has is a refurbished bar:

I'm not that savvy.

Thanks Waller! I'm on the phone with them now.

Yeah, Nintendo's online store is great. When the new wrist straps came out, I bought some from there for something like 50 cents.
