(ETA: It's a Wireless Wii Nunchuck, I'm looking for the brand)

I tried Googling the name and came up with nothing. Now, this store routinely uses bizarre names for its products, and often doesn't bother to mention the company behind them, so it's probably called something else officially - I just can't find it. It's not the Nyko version as far as I can see.

Helpies?

Looks like a wireless Nunchuk for a Wii.

Yes, I know; I'm trying to find the brand so I can look for reviews. Sorry if that wasn't clear in the OP.

Whoa, what? Wireless nunchuks? Encroyable!

That would reduce the problem I get with the cord getting caught on something while I'm Wii boxing... I wonder how the battery life is? Put up the review here when you find it, Bounty?

Is that the Nyko one that caused the lawsuit?

According to Amazon, it's made by Neutac.

And doesn't seem to be reviewed anywhere. Damn.

Whoa, what? Wireless nunchuks? Encroyable!

"Incroyable"

There's a few models out, it seems; I thought Nyjo was the only one to try it, but Amazon lists models from at least one other manufacturer. I'm going to get a second Nunchuck anyway, so I figured if it was good enough, I might get the wireless, especially since it costs the same as the official version, or near enough at least.

I ended up getting the Nyko version. First impressions:

- Setup is easy, although the two instruction sheets contradict each other; one says you just wait for the blinky light to stop, the other says you have to press the blinky light to sync. Once I got them synced, the connection was pretty solid. The Wiimote feels a bit funny with the extra bulk of the transmitter attached to it, but it doesn't change the way you handle it.

- Turning off the nunchuck seems to freeze the Wiimote. Unplugging the transmitter fixes this.

- The nunchuk itself feels like a slightly beefier version of the original. The stick isn't bad, but the buttons have a bit less "give" than the official version, making them feel sticky. It responds just find, the original nunchuck is just more comfortable.

I don't know about battery life yet.
