HTC Vive Tracker (3.0) & Vive Base Station

Battery life seems fine, very easy to use, they track well. The newer ones are smaller and lighter with an easier button, but these hardly weigh anything and the button is easy for me. I bought two and used a spare android device (or old phone) with an accelerometer coupled with owotrack for the waist tracking, works perfectly and can save you buying a third one.

I think you have to worry about positioning and interference with the RF from other bluetooth/motherboard usbs and proxmity and such.. Why? Well, it disconnects sometimes. Not sure why, and my hand is though to be the tracker as well. Remember to turn off the tracker and turn it on again to address that, but for the most part ready your headset, then your hands, then the trackers... itll assign them correctly that way. Plus the price is expensive. The tracking is really great! Smooth. The weight isnt bad for a waist tracker, really dont care about it.. so they did good there. Another thing though, yeah, ok. So, got two (2) used ones from them, and they dont come with the dongles or the cable or the charging port. I would be less inclined to gamble.. I suppose if you just want a tracker, go ahead, thats reliable. Beware if buying used from the amazon-warehouse theyre not listed properly and theyre missing items.

Just get em if you can afford all 3 they are very fun to use and charge in less than an hour for around 8 hours of playtime in vr chat! I also tried slime vr I would still recommend these but those are great as well.

Soo much more battery life and much lighter than the 2.0

These don’t lose tracking randomly like my 2.0s did, and the battery is way better(at least double). Worth the upgrade since they last as long as index controllers.

They work well unless occluded. They a bit large. Very accurate.

This thing is awesome! I use it for VRchat and other games as well, Although, I will say it is very light, Has around 4-6 hours of battery life and It tracks amazing with only 1 base station. I have a Rift S So I needed a base station along with my trackers but shoot! One base station does the trick!

Check your boxes immediately. I ordered three of these, and none of them came with the dongle thats supposed to fit into the cradle. I didnt realize I was missing hardware, I just thought that the cradle was the receiver and couldnt figure out why I could only get my headset to recognize the tracker as a controller. By the time I realized what was wrong I was way passed any reasonable time to return.

So far these 3 trackers I’ve ordered are pretty amazing. I don’t use them for much else then for full body tracking in Vr Chat, but honestly that alone is fine enough for me. The tracking for the legs is great and you can get real sense of movement with your legs. I usually set them up around the front of my ankles, and never have a problem with my sensors picking them up. The hip sensor was kinda hard to find the right spot to place so I can still allow the sensors to pick up my movements while still being comfortable and not restricted with where I sat and layed like. I found placing the sensor on my right hip was best for me. Overall I can’t really complain at all about these sensors besides the price, and how long the batteries last. I do play for long periods of time so this will probably not be a problem for others. The price would be way more acceptable if they were half their price, but overall I’m not ashamed or too broke after my purchase. I just can’t eat Panda Express as much as I want to now. Either way if you want to do more interactive stuff and “perform” for others in game, and even get a pretty good workout by dancing, fighting, or repeativly doing weird gags where you fall over dramatically and get back up. These sensors are amazing, and the comedy and laughter you get from people after doing funny stuff with your full body tracking is so worth it. Only buys these in 3’s and I highly recommend. Honestly it’s just the price, and everything else is perfect.

Somewhat Durable, Easy to mount to track straps, and Has a decent battery life. Charges fast!
