### Playstation, 3.3V, 3.7V or 5V? #### Voltage levels
##### Playstation, 3.3V, 3.7V or 5V?
There is contradictory data about Playstation controller voltages. I have one commercial adapter and it's 5V. I haven't measured official Playstation, but it is probably 3.3V.

##### Wii extension controllers
Wii extensions are 3.3V, byt I have used Wii Nunchuck and Classic Controller with 5V (VCC and signals) without problems.

Of course Arduino can be used many other ways. Add a PIR motion detector module from Ebay (under $2) and your computer wakes up from sleep when you walk to room. Just read PIR-sensor data pin and if it is 1, send some keyboard button (which normally does nothing) to computer so it wakes up. Or make info-board to your kitchen or hallway wall from old Android tablet and it turns on backlight only when someone goes to kitchen. Of course Arduino can be used many other ways.
