I have the AMVR rechargeable grip dock that used the same batteries.. but they don't last long... so i bought a battery spot welder and spot welded a couple of taps on one of my favorite brand of rechargeable batteries (that hold 2900mah of charge) and then used electrical tape to keep the taps in place and it works flawless!
i see you have a gunstock , i mostly bought the quest 3 for FPS's does a gunstock actually help ? Lot of YT'ers say they have tried many and they just give up on them.
CRAP i just bought the Meta charging dock too .. FML.. just new to VR ( less then 1 mth ) :( oh and I'm from Canada its 99.99$ which is fine but if I'm going to buy one do you have a Canadian link? I really like the look of that charging dock .
This dock doesn't charge Quest 3 when using the AMVR facial interface. Works fine using the default facial interface. Just emailed support on this, see what they say.
@@bringhurstvr Not sure, didn't have the official dock as it was too expensive for me. From my untrained eyes, the AMVR facial interface bottom protrudes out a bit more than the official facial interface so it prevents the pogo pins to make contact with the headset. Shame quite like this dock.
To my knowledge, nothing but the BoboVR dock will charge the batteries. That and a cable. Even the official Meta dock doesn't charge the battery when it's attached to the headstrap.
But integrated battery head straps, where they aren't hot swappable, seem to have a good chance of charging, according to different people I've talked to. So the Kiwi and AnnaPro are both candidates.
@@bringhurstvr All right. Thanks for the quick reply. Unfortunately I just bought the BoboVR S3 (Loved the M3), and was looking for some way to get a cleaner storage option. Might possibly get this and just charge the battery with a cable, and buy a dock for the battery when they release it. Seems very messy, but I`m not sure how else I can pull off the clean storage. I will use your referral link, when I do purchase it.
Just got one, thx for the info!! if I want to just leave it on this dock, when not using my quest, is there some sort of safety cut off with the dock so it doesn’t overcharge or damage long-term internal battery usage? I’ve seen that as a concern with most videos I’ve watched about charging past or after the headset gets to 100%
The headset itself should have protocols in place to take that into account, whether it's via a dock or a USB C cable. I can't speak to the dock itself, except to say that I haven't had any issues related to over charging. Maybe someone else can chime in with their own takes.
That dock is lush for such a small bit o' cash! I'll take 2! My future Quest 3 will be resting its bum on a different one every other day... the life of a spoiled Quest it shall have... I will give it everything it deserves... and in return it will heal the broken parts of my soul and complete me.
I assume you've entered the contest? There will only be a few hundred entries, compared to the dozens of thousands via larger channels. So the odds are pretty decent!
@@bringhurstvr Oh I"m the one hacking DNS servers so that no one else can get to gleam anymore. (innocent grin) I really think there are enough entries as it is... don't you?
Meta didn't "overcomplicate" things when it came to the controller batteries. They have a inductive charger with a high capacity. This allows them to be used with third party strap covers and wraps. Meta's issue though is they sell everything at a stupidly high markup, probably to make up for the fact that they are selling the HMD's at cost. The one and only thing that this charger did right was actually use the damn fast charge pogo pins on the front of the headset, something that every other third party seems to completely ignore.
Here's the real question, does it/will it backfeed through USB to charge other non-official batteries? ie a bobovr M3 (with the original supplied "B2" battery), will the dock backfeed through the quest to external batteries? or is that a limitation from the Quest 3?
I can't speak for other batteries, but the BoboVR M2 does not charge via the dock. But I'll try plugging a battery up to it without going through the headstrap. I kind of doubt it though.
@@bringhurstvr Oof, that's kind of unfortunate. Would be amazing if Meta actually thought about back feeding, so you could just slap it on a dock and it would charge the headset *and* backup/elite battery. Sure, I guess I could go get the bobovr dock too and slap the batteries on that, but then I have all these docks for all these accessories just eating up space. I generally don't play much wireless though, I like high bitrate image quality too much, and Link cable just dominates in that regard.
My AMVR Quest 2 wireless charging controller dock uses the same exact batteries with the silver contacts, so it seems they're common and generic. I haven't yet had an instance where the battery capacity hasn't gotten me through my whole VR session. They probably have diminished somewhat in the almost 2 years of regular use and occasionally I do have to clean off the contact points to ensure they charge up but they haven't disappointed me yet.
I ordered this dock; It looks like a great deal. I am using the Bobo VR S3 Pro. Hopefully it will work with it, else I'll return it. The Battery charging looks cool, but I am not about to take off my controller hand strap. Simple AA batteries last a long time with the Quest controllers, so it's not really an issue for me.
I got my dock pre order with a 512 and meta controller hand straps, got it all just before they came out, my setup with 3party batt strap, it’s the best Q3 setup on the planet.
Nope. Looks like when it comes to the Elite Strap it's not as simple as just making sure the pins are touching. Looks like meta's firmware is responsible for making sure the USB C port can feed the headstrap (instead of just intaking power). I can't be completely sure, but from what I've read it looks like the dock may have to be programmed to "tell" the headset it's charging on an authentic Meta dock. Similar to what apples done with their iPads for a long time. Which is to say - these guys might have to update the dock with firmware every time the headset gets an update. I won't know for sure until I've tried more of these things though.
@@bringhurstvr Very insightful response! Hopefully it’s more of an overlook vs a preventative measure. With the amount of capable 3rd party accessories, which are more advantageous to the consumer for a number of reasons; I’d hope they’re not writing code for accessories to function as intended exclusive to first party. Like dude, this is android 😂. Great vid, btw. I’ve definitely subbed.
This thing looks cool with the lights and stuff. I got myself the Meta charging dock mainly for the controller batteries, but i ended up loving it. It even charges my Kiwi comfort battery headstrap w/headset together, AND still charges my controllers with the grip covers on! 😁
I don't fully understand the hype on all these wireless charging docks that utilize the three pins to charge. the most important aspect is charging the quest 3 during use, as the battery dies within the blink of an eye. How I charge it overnight is only of little interest. Charging during use will inevitably involve the usb c charging port. So focussing on elegant ways to charge via the usb port is much more important.
@@bringhurstvr that’s certainly a valid argument. Actually I needed to replace my quest 3 due charging port failure as well. I have the kiwi dock and was planning to keep the small magnetic usb c insert in the quest 3 at all time and connect any charger via the magnetic connector so that there is as little wearing off as possible for the usb port. But you make a point and i will consider buying such a dock in addition.
A very complicated solution to a problem that really does not exist. The controllers use one standard AA battery that lasts for ages and are cheap and easy to replace....NO PROBLEM! On the other hand, a nice SIMPLE dock for the headset would be great.
lol "ages". you obviously dont play very much, like at all. I killed the batteries that came with it in a handful of short play sessions, same experience with Quest 2. Been using rechargable batteries for controllers for years at this point. Non rechargable batteries are a no beuno, waste of money. And this type of recharging is even better still than rechargable AA's. I wouldnt slag on the level of conveniance this unit brings. Is it necessary? certainly not, but its super convenient and your Quest gets its own tidy spot to sit.
Thanks for the helpful information. Being new to VR, I purchased the Kiwi RGB Vertical Charging Stand along with the SPC Battery Head Strap for Meta Quest 3. I had no idea it only charged the Headset. The controllers are always dead the next week I pick them up. I was close to buying a crappy charging dock from Apexinno on Amazon. Glad I decided to peruse further and found your video!
just got this dock and it seems like they gave me standard rechargable batteries, no metal contacts on the side, and its not charging. This is the only different I can see
Yeah, I use those silicone hand grips with the straps so this won’t work for me. I just use some Duracell rechargeable batteries in my controllers. The need design for battery cover is so easy to remove not a big deal for me. But. This thing does look cool! 😉👌
@@ForgottenMystic2604 okay, so... You're asking "will the Rebuff Reality battery charge the" third party battery headstrap? Sorry, but given that we're talking about a dock, your double reference to power banks is throwing me off.
@@bringhurstvr no no I mean will the dock charge the headset and power bank at the same time when the power bank is plugged into the headset and the headset is on the dock charging
@@ForgottenMystic2604 no idea. It sounds like both this and the official dock are capable of charging third party headsets, but it's gonna be a case by case basis.

Its made over complicated by meta so you have no other chance than purchasing Metas docking station. There is no other way taking advantage of the place inside your controllers than putting a normal AA battery or using metas overpriced shit.
The D.Gruoiza Dock seems awesome for it's price but it's also one of those products where I don't want to be the tester you know? I don't want to wake up one day with a half melted controller.... the electricity flows around the entire battery to charge... seems sketch imo
It takes about 2-3 hrs to charge, but i only play for like 2-3 hrs tops, and then i need a few hours before i will play again. But if your an all day type gamer, or you can go for 4-5 hours, then go again in an hr, then yea, get the 45w 😆
Not sure why you're not getting longer life with Q3 non-rechargeable AA's. With good quality Duracell alkaline I'm getting +1.5-2 months. Even a bit better than I got with my Q2 controllers (~1.5 months). Not as environment-friendly as rechargeable, but far fewer battery changeouts and I just use the stock 18w charger for my Q3 headset battery. Just don't get me into trouble with Greta Thunberg , lol! Thanks for your vids mate. They are always fun to watch. Also, good to see you part your hair on the left side like myself, and all the other cool kids with high IQ's do, or maybe just ones with left to right cowlicks, lol! Cheers.
I have the AMVR rechargeable grip dock that used the same batteries.. but they don't last long... so i bought a battery spot welder and spot welded a couple of taps on one of my favorite brand of rechargeable batteries (that hold 2900mah of charge) and then used electrical tape to keep the taps in place and it works flawless!
i see you have a gunstock , i mostly bought the quest 3 for FPS's does a gunstock actually help ? Lot of YT'ers say they have tried many and they just give up on them.
No, the Sanlacki and ProTube are great. The ProVolver with the front extension is my go to lately.
I have a question so does it the rechargeable batteries work with and controller hand strap like the meta ones and so on?
They provide batteries that work the same way as what Meta offers, but the battery design is different

THAT is a bummer. I'd return it and I'll make a point to let people know in the next video.
I bought the charger the only thing I dont like, I have to take the nose piece out to get the headset to charge
What nose piece? AMVR? I was using the stock interface with this.
But ONLY THE ORIGINAL charges with the hand straps attached unfortunately.
The stock Meta straps, yes. But as someone who doesn't like those too much, it's not a problem for me.
