HTC SteamVR Base Station 2.0

You need to connect the Base Station in your PC with USB to update firmware update in SteamVR, then remove the USB and put it 7 feet up and place it in the corner you need at least 2 of them to get the best experience for fullbody or Valve index VR, change the first Base Station channel from back theres a small button the Base Station it gonna blink blue then green it mean connected and tracking, Thank to the seller its Trusted!

I wanted to buy two base stations for my VR setup in June but Valve was out of stock at the time. Amazon came through with these. If you set them up properly for standing or room experience, they work great. Key point, dont leave them on all the time. The lasers inside spin at extremely fast RPM and you will wear out the base stations over time. Thats very important. With bluetooth this is easy, but wired, you have to manually unplug the power to the base stations. I left mine on for two months and I felt like a complete imbecile. Thankfully, I only play VR games infrequently because Im busy. They still work fine, but Ill be monitoring them over time for stability and performance issues.

Valves base station had mount for the wall abd the power line was much longer. But this one the line was waaay shorter and you didnt get a mount for it. As expected of vive. The only reason I purchased this was because of shortage with valves stock.

$50 upcharge for shorter cable and no mounting hardware, works great but is the same stations used with steams index.

This is nothing more than an Valve Index base station in HTC packaging. And while the price is $50 more than what Steam lists theirs at, you get less in the box. The Steam version includes: a 15 power cable, Mounting Equipment, Regional Power Adapters, and a cleaning cloth. Dont Buy HTCs version unless Steams listing is Out of Stock or unavailable in your region.

Ordered 2 for my Valve Index to replace Base Station 1.0s. Paired easily and worked perfectly with my existing mounts.

After 5 days of using this one base station for VRChat because full-body tracking is the best, the base station started flashing red which indicated hardware failure. It was essentially bricked for those who dont know about the possibility of the rotor just straight up failing. Granted, it did work but not for long. If you want the same base station at a lower cost, just get it off Steam when they restock. They are good at replacing broken base stations unlike HTC with their nightmarish customer support and it comes with mounts and a better power brick. If theyre out of stock, just order a 1.0 since the only difference is a wider area coverage for bigger rooms when it comes to the 2.0.

Improves tracking in large playspaces and reduces the chance of losing tracking from occlusion.

its a amazing product just what i wanted but it was $50 more been waiting for 3 months on steam but this kind of saved me

Works perfectly. Price is just steeper than on Steam, but they have been out of stock on steam so I went with this.
