hi, im really new here, ive discovered the wiimote hack some days ago and i couldnt wait to try so i bought a wiimote and some components.
ive "created" this two pens:

the one on the left has a presure switch, not on the tip, but on the rubber grip. so there is no switch visible, but when you squeeze very little activates the led. it works with a 3mm ir led and 2 batteries in parallel to maximize life. dont know the refference of the batteries, they are like twice the height of typical wrist watch batteries, 1.5v.
the pen on the right works with a 5mm led and a presure switch on the tip, so when you "write" it activates. powers with a single rechargable battery AAA 1100mA. On the back of the pen is a 2.5mm minijack plug to charge the battery inside.

both works flawlesly!
now that i have the adecuate instruments to work with, i'd like to discover new things i can make with the wiimote. especialy i like the foldable displays of johnny, but i couldnt find anything on the forum...
well, hope you liked my pens!
bye

If its possible its already done, so lets make the impossible!
People see existing things and wonder why...
I preffer to imagine non existing things and wonder why not.
