HTC SteamVR Base Station 2.0

I am not sure they are worth $200 each but they work with my Pimax 8KX. No issues, plug and play.

Same station that came with the index. Plugged in and conected to the system automatically. The only difference is the power cord which is slightly shorter and a different shape on the plug. No mounting hardware and $50 more than if you got from valve directly... But they are sold out at the time of writing. A good mount is only $10-20 so if you need one now, this is worth it.

I ordered two base stations and it came quickly and was packaged well. When I got everything out and plugged up is when red flags showed up. One of them had the number ‘7’ and the word “loud” all over the sides in sharpie. The other sounded like a jet engine when plugged in. Both flashed blue for a moment then red, meaning critical hardware failure. On the plus side, returning them was easy.

These things are overpriced, anyway - they charge what they can get away with. If you can get them from Valve, do so - youll save fifty bucks, which is still a rip off, but less so. And while these are functionally the same as Valves, they dont come with mounting gear, and the power cord is insultingly short. But if youre desperate for some base stations, these are better than nothing. The problem is HTC seems to be counting on that.

wow, my 4th base station was totally necessary and made my tracking good ☺

Was a great upgrade from the 1.0 stations! Has helped tremendously with fully body 360 tracking.

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

Power cord could be longer and the price could be lower.

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

Not much to say about this except it does what its suppose to do. If you want full body immersion you need these and vive trackers. I suggest 4 base stations with a large play space and 2 if your play space is small.
