so, how does it connect to the Wii?

The wii sensor bar only gets power from the the wii It does not send or receive any information at all. That is all done through Bluetooth technology. hope this clears things up.

[...] Stacy and her Dad decided that the Wii sensor bar was a bit too visible for their liking. So what do you do? Stuff it in an old remote, of course! Dad and I were trying to build a Wireless Sensor Bar and managed to do one that is all wires and batteries. Then He Started digging through all of his remotes around the house and found a couple that didn’t work on anything. so we set off to work on a “Version 2″ so to speak. We took one of the remotes and cut off part of the Circuit board and then drilled holes in the side for the IR LED’s and used the battery box already on the remote and made a sensor bar that is sort of “Incognito”.

Stacy is only partly right.
The Wii “Sensor Bar” (huge misnomer) does not send any information at all (and no, there’s no Bluetooth in there). It’s sole purpose is to emit constant IR light from each end, so that the REMOTE can sense the two points in space and decide where it’s pointing.
