Greater than one weekI dont recommend getting this tiny device if you plan on playing video games with it, price will definitely come down exponentially in the coming months so be patient. Now if your an animator, this is a MUST cop. Ikinema Orion or VRIK will give you very high quality mocap data. Especially VRIK if you tweak the settings a bit. If you have 10 trackers, VRIK and a lot of space in your basement or garage, the quality/accuracy is comparable to Xsens, maybe 80% there. Ikinema Orion is amazing but pricey, $500/yr is not worth it compared to VRIK, I already had VRIK so I just spent $500 on more trackers rather than the Ikinema software. The more trackers, the better.

> 3 dayThe only thing about these trackers is the slightest reflection will make them bounce around, but theyre the best on the market for fullbody tracking so not bad.

> 3 dayThis 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!

Greater than one weekFor how bulky these trackers are in both size & price, they do get the job done and have real good tracking. Have had no issues with the trackers so far.

> 3 dayI love these things. I only play VRChat so I do not know what other games support these. But I use 4 trackers, two on my feet one on the side of my hip and one on my chest. The chest helps a lot to keep my body from moving up as I sit down as it obscures my vision. Pros: -super easy to set up just plug and and let steamvr pair them - Very tanky accidentally kicked walls with them and dropped them on steel parts of my desk and work fine. -last a really long time, though I plug them in every night and have a full time job so I generally play at most 3 hours a day only had to use spare USB batteries to charge them on the weekend a few times - It really does bring life to the game for me as it makes my avatar feel way less robotic. - fairly easy to rig up a cheap 5000mah cell phone charging battery to the strap. You can buy velcro tape and sew one side to the strap and tape the other to the battery and buy some velcro straps for extra security to quickly install and remove when needed. Honestly 5000mah is overkill they still showed full charge after completely charging them up so if you can go a bit smaller like 1000-2000mah since you can just remove them after they did their thing and throw them back on the chargers. Cons: - I have a small room so my trackers sometimes lose sight of my 3 light houses making my character fly away at the speed of light or turn into some twisted demonic pretzel. - Need so many USB wires and ports for both the computer and for charging

> 3 dayThey last longer then my vive controllers without a battery pack making them a lot lighter. They track perfectly well and are easy to use. Considering buying more for upper arm tracking.

> 3 dayBattery 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.
