HTC SteamVR Base Station 2.0

The unit functions fine. The price is hefty by about 15% above the vomprtiyy tu ion but the competition had none in-stock

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.

so I ordered 2 of these and 1st 1 I opened was new with protective sticker over face and power supply in bag. the 2nd 1 I opened was missing protective sticker, had minor scratches and smudges and power supply didnt have a bag and no twist tie with fingerprints. ok I can live with that, then I plug it in everything looks good for 2 seconds then I get the flashing red light indicating hardware failure... not cool

I ordered two of these base stations, the first one was broken the very moment I plugged it in. (Red light of death). Upon ordering a replacement, the same incident except the box that the second one came in was also terribly smashed. Which could be due to where it was shipped out from but still... I dont recommend buying a base station here unless youre desperate, but chances are you might receive a broken/malfunctioning base station more so then a perfectly functioning one. They also come with a short ugly cord, and no wall mount despite being a much higher price then from Valve.

Bought this about a month ago everything was fine never touched it once I mounted it on my wall, all of a suddenly I go to plug it in to its power source and it starts blinking red, not sure as to what caused this but now it wont connect to my pc no matter what I do, I heard its a hardware failure but not sure how I will return it if its over the return window time, as it is its just a waste of 200$, broke within a month, currently am contacting steam if they can replace it if possible but well see.

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.

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

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.

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.
