Shortage in IR sensors but no shortage in Super Jolt Guns!!

For the people that are still looking for a Super Jolt Gun. I've got quite some supply. Colours are limited due to restrictions in my country.
Let me know if you want one: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,167013.0.html

(hope this is more in line with the rules :) )

Yes, that's the right part number. How did you find this website?
Are you sure it's not a scam? Especially how it says it'll ship in 24hrs. lol

Did a google search :-), i'm also talking with another chinese supplier from Alibaba, they're on vacation now and will respond on the 8-9th oct, I'll update.
The above supplier, no I never bought from him but he has a PayPal (insurance) so I don't mind.

There's also something else not right about that circuit for the Wii camera.  The pinout for the camera calls out 25mhz on the CLK line, but the schematic shows a 24mhz oscillator.  Is the camera being underclocked intentionally, or is one of these in error?

Starting to think that this is the reason 1942 is not having success, as he is using a 24mhz oscillator, and every reference I have seen to this part calls out a 25mhz clock.

For the IR LED, I would like to use the black 940nm IR LED SIR5028B instead of the transparent ones because I heard they perform better.
By looking at the calculator, I see that for VCC 1.2V I should use 47 Ohm (for transparent LEDs - 27 Ohm); can someone please advise if this is correct, or point me to the right black LEDs & resistors?

Sounds like it should work.
For me, i use a voltage divider scheme with high wattage resistors to drop the volts and maintain enough amps/watts for the LEDs.
I use tools like this website https://circuitdigest.com/calculators/voltage-divider-calculator
