Just like wired, except it's not.

Got this for my cosmos elite so I could finally finish my dream vr setup, wireless headset, index controllers, and 2.0 base stations. Setup was incredibly simple, it took me less than 20 minutes. The hardest part was getting the headset to connect to the computer, I just had to reinstall the software and press the power button a few times, then it finally connected. At first I was afraid having PCI-E gen 2.0 would be a problem, but it actually turned out to work perfectly fine with my MSI b450 tomahawk. While the page does list that AMD chipsets have issues, this is no longer the case. I have found that this issue was fixed a long time ago with driver updates yet for some reason they still haven't updated the page. As long as you have a capable CPU, I would 100% recommend the adapter, it completely changes the experience and makes your play-space feel much larger. If I were to list one problem though, it would be the battery life. The included battery only gets you up to 2 hours of playtime max, usually less. I play vr all day long, so this is kind of a big deal to me. You can purchase more batteries though, which completely solves the issue.

Using on vive pro 2.

Works great. Makes moving my set up to other rooms...or outside...wayyyyy easier. Re-energized my love of VR. You do have to deal with the battery pack cable, but thats only attached to you not a pc. I use a ravpower 20000mah qc 3.0 in addition to the included brick. Ive spent 4 hours straight on that rav power and it wasnt dead. Included power cable is usb-a to usb-a fyi.

L**!

Interesting & Useful Tech - Outclassed at a Lower Price Point for Most

I play a fair bit of VR. Not as much as I used to, but when my trusty Valve Index finally bit the bullet after 3 years of service, I wanted to try to side-grade. I already had the base stations and equipment necessary to integrate into SteamVR with (what should have been) a drag-and-drop hardware replacement - a Vive Cosmos Elite. When I had the money, I ended up purchasing the wireless adapter and have been using it for a few months in total now.Context for the review, here is my VR setup:- Vive Cosmos Elite w/ Wireless Adapter- 2x Valve Knuckle Controllers- 3x Vive 2018 Tracking Pucks- 3x SteamVR 2.0 base stationsI mostly played VRChat, Blade & Sorcery, Tactical Assault VR, and Beat Saber. All 4 had no trouble transmitting all their data, with only the occasional grey-screen-of-death that would resolve itself within 30 seconds, either on its own or by me unplugging and plugging the power cable to the adapter back in. I found the included power bank to be good for shorter play sessions (around 2 hours), but I ended up switching to a power bank I already owned.IF YOU SWITCH POWER BANKS, THERE IS NO GUARANTEE IT WILL WORK! PLEASE DO YOUR OWN TESTING!For reference, the included power bank lists its output at 5-6V @ 3A, 6.2-9V @ 2.3A, 9.2-12V @ 1.75AMine lists its output as 5-6V @ 3A, 6-9V @ 2A, 9-12V @ 1.5AThe adapter itself isn't unwieldy beyond the cord running down my spine to my pocket/waist which can be run through my clothes to avoid the issue entirely. It does get warm but doesn't cause any discomfort while wearing the headset for upwards of 4-5 hours at a time playing VRC. Even laying down with it while in FBT isn't uncomfortable, and I don't really notice the extra weight or cable. If you ALREADY HAVE a compatible headset/equipment, an open PCIe slot, and want the untethered experience, this is a pretty decent option.However, it's worth mentioning that other standalone headsets can actually be connected to your PC as well (namely, Quest Link which works over your wifi network which is compatible with Meta Quest headsets), and there are open source projects such as OpenVR-SpaceCalibrator on GitHub that let you mix and match Inside-Out and Outside-In tracking spaces (with a healthy amount of jank). With the Quest hardware at such a low price-point compared to requiring already owning a headset AND THEN buying this adapter on top of it, I can't recommend this to anyone except people who are against Meta hardware and/or don'twant to deal with outdated but functional software to keep their other SteamVR goodies working.As an additional note, the Vive software is fairly simple to use once you get past the initial installation. It took me nearly 2 hours to troubleshoot getting my headset to even register on my PC, but since then it has calmed itself down and I only need to open the Vive Wireless app to access my headset with no strings attached. There is some overhead added on by these app requirements, but if you're considering buying this you probably have a PC that can tank it with little to no issues anyways.tl;dr Buy if you want untethered and already have compatible hardware. If not, buy a Quest 2/3 and use Quest Link.

Works and easy to install.

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.

Nowhere remotely worth the price

For $350, I should not also have to buy a third-party battery for more than 2 hours of play and I most certainly should not need to add a laptop fan to the headset adapter to keep it from overheating and crashing after 40 minutes of play. To be clear, that is not a defect--it's a design flaw. After 40 minutes of play my screen would randomly start turning blue for 1-5 seconds or crash altogether. This is well-documented and the "fix" is to bolt on a usb-powered laptop fan.Now, all that said, when it works it works and it's very convenient. But given the above, the most I'd pay for it is in the $150 to $200 range.

Cool but Extreme Drawbacks

If you want to lose the tether to your PC, this is a way to do it. Unfortunately, it has some enormous drawbacks.Setting aside the mildly annoying problem of the signal being blocked by literally any object between you and the receiver, the wireless module crashes seemingly at random every 5 to 30 minutes. This is the case with myself and 2 of my friends who also got it.On top of that, the module that rests on top of your head gets dangerously hot to the point that you can actually burn yourself if you touch it. One friend wireless receiver managed to ignite and he now just keeps it on a shelf as a trophy of sorts since his was out of warranty at the time.In my personal experience, the device is mostly frustrations and having to restart my headset every few minutes when it crashes, but it is nice to be able to not worry about a cable, I suppose.

Hopefully a good thing >:-/

I put a five star because I hope it’s a good product. Just wish it was more ‼️obvious that it CAN’T BE USED WITH A NOTEBOOK!! My main concern was If my laptop is powerful enough , well i never found out because to install you need a pci slot . So, I put it aside 😡 till one bright day when I can buy a desktop.

A**I

Super Easy and Better than I had hoped

The setup is easy enough that even a novice could do it and the module is a lot lighter than I expected. It does get really hot though, and while it's not unbearable while using it, try not to touch it.
