HTC Vive Base Station

I normally have never had any problems with refurbished items. However, when arrived not only did it not have the power cable but when I used a different power cable it turned on but there was a blinking red light. Which means there is an internal mechanical error. Next time I would hope they checked their products more carefully before sending them back out.

The product works as intended. I wish it came with a wall mount, but I wont dock it a star for a personal preference.

Works.

Works well when it is setup. The only minis is the power saving feature that is flaky, sometimes hours after the computer shuts down they are still mechanically on. This is probably limiting their lifetime.

So as of right now I only have this one no other base stations and tbh the track on this is great with just one I will be ordering one more soon because it does lose some tracking but I expected that with just one but it works great for only having one

Works well

it works, thanks!

Nothing not to like Vive is back up and running

So, as for what I received, it works great, as advertised. An excellent version 2 replacement. The conditions that led me to ordering this were kind of silly, though. One of my base stations was no longer tracking correctly, and debugging the hardware, fiddling with the mounts and angles, and removing other light sources from the room did nothing to help. So I sent it to the HTC repair center, but now I dont know when to expect it back, so ended up just ordering another one from here to keep things moving. Kind of annoyed by that, but whatever. Imagine my surprise when hooking up the replacement, it was having the same tracking issues. I eventually figured out that there was an environmental factor I hadnt been considering: some framed pictures were put on the wall near the play area recently, and their reflective plexiglass was seriously messing with the invisible lasers that the base stations use. After they were removed from the area, everything worked fine. If youre having tracking issues, consider looking for potentially reflective surfaces rather than jumping to the wrong conclusion like I did, and that includes anything, not just mirrors.

Worked like a new one
