HTC SteamVR Base Station 2.0

3 stars is as much as I can give these even though they work perfectly. 1 star lost for the fact that they up charge you $50 but dont even include mounting hardware, causing you to spend at least an additional $10 just to mount them. That much more for the same base station with no hardware is unforgivable. Second star lost due to cord length. Unless youre mounting it directly above, or just a few feet over from, an outlet, youll need extension cords. Summary: Yes, they work, very well, but if you are lucky enough to catch the Valve branded ones on steam for $150 with longer cables and mounting hardware, jump on those!

50$ more for a shorter cable and no mounting hardware compared to the one directly sold from Valve.

I ordered two 2.0 Base stations and they arrived in good time, I was very pleased with how fast the shipping was. as I opened the package though I was very disappointed with how it was packed. One flimsy strip of bubble wrap and that was it. The base stations could easily freely move around in the box they were shipped in. I tested both and only one works. Im surprised that even one works. as for the other one I plug it in and it seems alright for about a minute. it does the usual LED flashing blue then turn green. after that though it flashes red signifying hardware failure. The working one works great though tracks perfectly and I have had no issues with it. just really disappointed in how Amazon shipped these.

Waste of money. The product arrived with the bag opened, the box partially damaged, and partially opened. And I paid for a working product and I got a busted base station that immediately started flashing red when I plugged it in. And I checked various support pages on steam and google that say the red light means it’s broken and not fixable at home. Fast delivery, but a totally unacceptable product delivery

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

Mine were scratched up and didnt have the film to prevent it that others come with, and beyond that, these are about 30% overpriced compared to a number of other options, and offer fewer features. you get no wiring to plug them into your computer, and even the power cable is cheaper and angled sideways, resulting it unnecessary strain, even if its less obstructive to other plugs than others would be. as the cherry on top, theres no mounting bracket, so if you get these, youll also need one of those. its a standard camera screw, I believe, but mine is still printing out (thank the fact that patents end for 3D printers, am I right?) I think its supposed to be laser based, so I hope these scratches dont affect its accuracy. UPDATE: one was DOA. I suggest you look at a different one.

This worked for about 2 days and then stopped. Went on the website of the maker which I think was HP. They asked no questions just sent a replacement in 4 days we had it.

Not sure if these are refurbished units because the original basestations that came with my Valve Index dont have this problem. Both of the basestations I purchased here off of amazon required a firmware update and both were bricked, refused to start again, after powering down after the update.

Works well. Tracking is accurate and fast.

This base station is $50 more than what steam is selling it for and it does not come with -ANY- mounting hardware or even screws. You gotta do what you gotta do but they are clearly taking advantage of the current situation.
