replacement sensor, May 13, 2009

This was a replacement sensor for the original that came with the WII. The original had wires that were sucked up by the vacuum cleaner and the sensor hit the floor and would not work. The replacement sensor works great and as good as the original. Would highly recommend. Would also recommend keeping the wires off the floor-so they do blend in the right color rug and get sucked up by the vacuum.

perfectly good sensor bar, August 2, 2008

I originally had one of these before and it worked great, until my cat chewed through the wire. I guess thats a flaw to consider that it is wired, but compared to the wireless sensor bars that are out there, the wired one is oh so much better.

works ok, minor installation problems, October 14, 2008

Overall the product works well, although there were minor problems the first day. The adhesive for the stand didn’t work (I used my own). Also, the sensor didn’t seem to work properly at first. After the sensitivity was adjusted in the wii system everything worked well.

Switch Does NOT Control Fan, February 25, 2008

By 

T. Carey “Tom35″ (Bristol, CT) – See all my reviews

  

= Fun: 

Just to remark on another review, the on/off switch does not control the fan. The fan stays on whenever the unit is plugged in. The switch only controls the blue light.
I have made an adjustment in my charging center to get the switch to control both the light and the fan.
In order to do this you must:

1) Remove the sticky feet and the 4 screws underneath them
2) Remove the circuit board (2 screws) that the fan wires goto.
3) Unsolder the fans black wire (+) from the bottom of the curcuit board
4) Solder the fans black wire to the on off switch where the red wires from the blue light are already soldered.
5) re-screw the circuit board
6) rescrew the 4 screws under the feet
7) Put back on the sticky feet.

Now the on/off switch will control both the fan and the blue light.
I rated this an overall rating of 3 because this is a stupid design and the on/off switch should have controlled both without me having to modify it.
Doing this modification was simple.
I am not a great solderer so was worried at first, but when I took it apart I saw how easy it would be.
The modification took less then 10 minutes and could be done easily by anyone.
If this modification was done by the factory, I would have given this unit a 5 star review, but since I had to mod it, I am giving it a 3.

Wii dual charger with fan, March 7, 2008

= Fun: 

I purchased this thinking it would be good since it does not require an additional power cord and has the two charger docks and batteries. When I received it I found that the on/off switch does not control the fan just the light and the base charging units. I also have some issues with the charging docks. They are too deep for the remotes. The wrist strap gets in the way when you insert them and I have problems with the remotes making contact to charge. I read the other reviews and sure, if I take the wrist straps off the remotes would fit better but I have two young children that are not going to take the time to do that. If the on/off switch controlled the fan as well and the docking stations were not as deep it would be a great charging station for the Wii. Over all I am keeping it but I am going to follow the other review on modifying it to have the on/off switch control the fan. If the remotes making contact to charge becomes too much of an issue I will purchase a different type of unit. Until this item is modified by the manufacturer I would not recommend it unless you need to save the money and have the time to fool with it. It is a great design idea I just think it needs a few modifications.

= Fun: 

When buying this product I was pretty skeptical due to all the bad reviews but when it arrived I was in for a delight. The company was probably reading the reviews online and I guess they came out with a version 2.0. The light switch now controls the fan and that is a big help because now you don’t have to go in and play operation and try to solder this and that like Mr. and Mrs.D.I.Y. I want to thank everybody for your reviews and keep doing what you do because your voice will be heard. Also anyone thinking about buying this product you should it keeps you Wii cool to prevent overheating and damage and the rechargeable batteries for the Wii remotes are great!
