HTC Wireless Adapter for Vive Pro/ Cosmos Series - PC

Was pretty intimidated at the instructions as a non computer kinda person. However it was super easy to install. The step by step instructions on the website were pretty good. Can confirm this works for Vive Cosmos Elite system. Only negative is the price. This is an insane price but when you have a 9 year old playing and twisting/breaking the cord from the original headset this is a must if you want them to enjoy the system.

After years of getting tangled in wires I decided to try this out when I saw it on sale around Xmas time, very happy with it, installation. Was easy and I’m not the most tech savvy person, not completely useless but far from a pro also. I had no problems installing it and the software and it works flawlessly, I picked up an extra battery pack a: INIU Power Bank, 20000mAh Portable Charger USB C in&out, 22.5W PD3.0 QC4.0 Fast Charge External Battery Pack

I play a lot of videogames and in VR and one hour of time for this device is not that great. The battery pack needs to be charged with a fast charging cable and a 18w power supply or the battery pack will not charge. If you want a battery pack that will last longer then you need to get a separate one. I recommend the akner power core iii elite 26k 18w output, it gives you six hours of play time. Once the battery is done the headset will go dark, and you have to restart your whole computer if you want to use another battery pack. Other than that it does what it says. It is wireless, your headset feels better on your head with it. Oh I forgot the thing over heats alot and it will lose tracking. If I would have known all of this, I wouldn't have forked out 300 dollars. I use my cable all the time.

Removing the umbilical cord and going wireless is awesome, smooth frame rates with 99.9% no stuttering and that 0.1% of a stutter is so small it’s hardly noticeable. Now for the bad….battery life, it comes with 1 battery and it dies just under 2 hours of use and trying to find more batteries or figure out what batteries are compatible, good luck, the few I have found has a price tag of $150-$200/ battery. Overall I definitely recommend but keep your sessions shorter or be prepared to plug the umbilical cord back in to finish your session.

My HTC Vive Pro recently stopped working... it turns out the headset cable failed due to being spun around too much :( I contacted HTC, but they wouldn't do anything. I then looked at the cost of a new cable and it's around $100. Since I know it'll fail like the 1st one did, I decided to get this wireless adapter and it's been amazing. I no longer have to keep track of my rotations (using fpsVR). I can just play and let the guardian system keep me from running into or punching walls or other objects in my room. I've only had the wireless adapter overheat once and shutdown. Other than that, it lasts around 2-3 hours of continuous play, which is plenty for me. I've read online that you can use any battery bank that supports QuickCharge 3, but my battery bank doesn't seem to work. So I just use the 1 official HTC batter that this set comes with. This set comes with everything that you need to get your Vive Pro up-and-running. Just be sure that you have 1 free PCI-E x1 slot available for the add-on card.
