HTC Vive Base Station

Great base station. Used for full body tracking for VR.

Given how important to a good VR setup your base stations are, I find that the HTC Vive base stations tend to give out a bit too soon and are a fair bit more expensive to replace than should be the case. That being said, when the base stations are installed properly and working as expected, they are a pleasure to have around. The VR experience would be far less immersive without the positional tracking that these base stations enable.

These lasted only a couple of months before I started having issues with them. Sadly, it was too late to return them. :(

Quality products working great

So I got 2 base station around last month, They both are working find for me until around this month, one of the base station give me a fault 3 error. I call the support for help and they say they can’t do anything .....so is there any other way I can return 1 base station and get my money back?

My first one broke in my first week of owning it this one for being apparently used was in amazing condition and still works perfectly two months after purchase

I got it and it wasn’t even turning it on.

For the amount of money the whole system costs, its crazy flaky and buggy. Ive had the thing for about a week and out of the 10 times I went to use it 3 times did it start up with not having to find the headset or to find out the battery died for the controllers or the head set couldnt find them. At least the controllers have a charge port.. but Why do the batteries die when not in use? Ive had to charge the controllers more often than I actually used the thing because the few times I went to use it, the batteries where dead. Then after they were charged. I had to waste another 20 minutes trying to pair them. For a system over $1,000 it needs to be on right away, all the time consistently. It needs to be working even when its off to be ready at a moments notice. If this thing was one of my employees, I would have fired them.

AAT

Everything came in tact and perfect condition
