> 3 dayNot going to lie, I have a rather large melon on my shoulders; as in I dont wear headbands and caps are always on the last whole, large. This strap is awesome, the oculus fits my massive melon comfortably and I am able to play for longer periods! By far the best purchase I have made this year.

> 3 dayThe strap attaches to the Oculus well. Once on, it feels pretty comfortable. That battery doesnt last as long as advertised but was still pretty decent. I really wanted to love this. The reason for the poor review is because of the build quality. The black silicone head support directly under the battery pack is only attached to the white hard-plastic support straps with 2 tiny screws, one each on the left and right sides. The screw size is comparible to an eyeglass screw. Its very small. On the top of the black silicone piece is where the top cloth support strap connects back to the oculus. If any of these 3 connecting points fail, the entire headset is useless One of the screws came out today. It cant simply be screwed back in because its accessed from the inside of the battery pack unit. You have to separate the pack to gain access with a driver. Plus, the screw is so tiny that I cant imagine how it could hold anything. Seems like they should have used more screws, or even screws that are a little longer. I would not recommend this product, especially if you game often. I use this oculus a few times per month, and I certainly dont beat on it, and this pack only lasted a few months.

> 3 dayWorks really well. Very impressed. The counterweight of the battery takes some of the weight off of the little ones, 5 years old and such. Additionally, the mechanism to adjust the size makes fitting multiple people quicker and easier, again, especially the little ones. Higher recommend.

Greater than one weekI really wanted to love this head strap, the price is right, and the fit is quite good and it seems very well made. The issue is that sometimes it just wont charge the headset and I either end up with a dead headset (but fully charged strap) when I go to use it, or if Im using it I will only get about 3 hours before the headset dies (but the strap is fully charged). I always make sure the green/orange light on the Quest 2 is turned on. Its not in the instructions but it seems you have to hit the little button on the strap for it to charge the headset, but sometimes this doesnt work and you have to sit there and press it multiple times, and even then its a crapshoot if the headset will be charged. As mentioned the fit is great, much better than the stock Quest 2. I dont bother with the black top strap as I hate looking like a bird made a nest in my hair after my VR sessions. Without the middle strap it still fits quite well and the weight balance makes it very comfortable. The tightening mechanism is spot on and works well. Its a shame, its really nice if it just worked well at its primary purpose, charging the headset.

Greater than one weekI was really nervous that this wouldnt be what it said it was based on price after looking at best buy. This has longer battery life and is incredibly comfortable. We have played for hours and havent had it go dead yet. It helps balance the oculus so that doesnt feel awkward or front heavy. I highly recommend this product and seller had perfect description and arrived a day early.

> 3 dayReview 1 on 03/01/2022: I have had the head strap for a week and used it twice. The head strap appears to be good quality. It seems to charge fast and works well. However, as a 64-year-old senior woman, it is heavy on the back of my head for the 2 times I used it for about 30 minutes. It gives me a headache, so I have to stop and remove it. I could be adjusting it too tight so I am going to continue to play around with it to see if I can figure out the correct adjustment for me so that its not so heavy on the back of my head and gives me that discomfort. Even though it does not look that heavy, that battery on the back is a somewhat heavy for me. Will do a second review in a few days when I try it again. Again, the quality is good thus far and it works well. Review 2 on 03/13/2022: The headstrap continues to be a head strap of good quality and great battery life as the back up power. Love charging it from the battery port so as not to overcharge the headset. Love that the battery port also charges both the head set and the battery pack. I am learning to adjust the head set to the back of my head for better wear. I have gotten accustomed to it now. I definitely would recommend to give it a try if looking for a head strap with a battery pack. I bought this also because that OQ2 headband broke and return to OQ2 and it’s been 4 weeks and have not seen the replacement strap. So happy this force me to buy a better product as far as materials and the quality way it was made as not to have it break apart in certain areas. Review 3 on 03/24/2022: The adjustable head strap knob on the back kept falling out of its port on the back. The headband would automatically drop back down to the smaller size as the adjustable knob would not hold it in the size I had selected so it was not locking the size in place. The black head piece that rests on the back of the head had turned a little so when I put on the oculus I was forced to turn it about an inch to the left side taking me out of focus somewhat. I dealt with it for 3 weeks but finally decided to contact the seller to see what is the fix for it as I enjoyed using this headband. The seller immediately respond to my inquiry as I sent 4 pics for the seller to see my problem. The seller is sending me a new headband and apologize for the inconvenience. You will always have some failures in some products and I understand nothing is perfect however if the seller will work with you to fix the problem, then I can support that seller and his product. So I am impressed with this quick feedback and turnaround. Thank you Seller for your positive and apologetic quick response to replace the product. Review on 04/02/2022: The seller sent a replacement headstrap however, I did not receive it. Since I did not receive it, I requested a refund and returned the broken headstrap and the seller was very accommodating and refunded me my money. Upon request, I did request the tracking number to the package and the tracking number did show it was delivered, however it was not delivered to my address. I filed a complaint with the postal service as the deliverer drop the package at the wrong address. The seller was very easy and accommodating to work with. This was the best customer service and as he stated, he just wanted me happy. If I can get the package back, I will contact the seller to see if he wants me to return. No company is perfect but if customer service works with you to resolve the issue, that is the most excellent customer service. Thank you.

Greater than one weekIt cups the back of the head nicely and provides a decent relief from the weight on your face when using the Quest 2 as a result. I can finally go all day without having to charge my headset with the additional battery. For those wondering, yes this will fit snugly inside the standard Quest 2 case from Oculus, therefore it should also fit fine in many of the aftermarket case. The only gripe I could possibly pick out over this strap is concerning the charge activation button. It requires 1 press to activate and 2 to shut it back off. If this were flipped, it would help prevent accidental activation of the charge function. Although that is a very minor concern. This strap is well worth the money, in my opinion. It feels durable and gives off the impression that its going to last me quite a long time.

> 3 dayI debated this strap at first but with regular use it’s definitely a must have in my opinion. It’s easy to install. I love that you can easily adjust it with the turn of the knob and that it cradles the head for a more secure fit when being active. The extra battery life is a great feature as well.

> 3 dayI liked everything about this head strap. When I got it, it came just as expected and was super easy to install. And when you charge it, you only have to plug in the extended battery since it’s charging your headset at the same time. It might take a bit off getting used to since you might be used to playing for 2 hours then getting off but it’s a super cool product.
