sorted by3rd party strap will cost around £20-25
A good 10,000mAh powerbank will set you back around £10-15
Or a good 20,000mAh powerbank will set you back around £20-25
Even if you go for a 10,000mAh powerbank, it'll give you more than twice the playing time than the 4,676mAh battery included with this strap (for around £10 less).
Also, if/when you upgrade to a Quest 3 (or 4 if you're in no rush), you can always use the powerbank on the new headset, the Quest 2 straps do not fit the Quest 3 (unless you buy an adapter), so you will lose the use of the battery if/when you change headset.
Just look for one that keeps the headset from pressing into your face and you should be golden.
The latest straps do not have the snapping issue. The texture of the plastic has changed and they are now a little bit thicker.
I got this a few weeks back from Meta along with the active set and the case, the case is terrible though, I do not recommend that.
With the battery head strap and active grips you'll do more damage using the case than just plonking it on the shelf.
I now much use the bobovr with the powerbank and it's so much better (edited)
The former without a battery is much cheaper. The latter is slightly more expensive (less so if you use the code listed at the bottom of the page), but both are much higher quality, unlike the official ones which are known for snapping.
Both increase the comfort over the official default headstrap by far and are well-balanced. (edited)
Interestingly when I went to ask for replacement on Metas site it said the device was not eligible for replacement which was worrying. (edited)
Something is going on here.
That it won't hold charge suggests it's been allowed to deep discharge on the shelf for a long time. Check the manufacturing date, on the bottom of the box: I bet it's really old new stock (from 2021.)
Someone above said that they'd got one from Argos with a manufacturing date of 9/2021. This is when they still failed prematurely. Mine from Amazon today (actually Amazon) is 12/2021, I'm returning it.
So far at least 2 of us have got the ones made near the original release date!
