      +Brad Lynch Just an FYI, this discussion about adhesive tape came up on /r/vive. That adhesive tape may be 30 pounds for the whole role. Assuming there was 3 meters of tape, that's 10 pounds per meter or 1 pound per 100 centimeters. That's not nearly strong enough to hold up the lighthouse which is why you may have had issues. It's pretty weird advertisement for the tape, but you need to consider how much the adhesive tape holds up per how every much you are using to hold up the lighthouse.

      +Papo Papo I have my lighthouses on two portable tripod stands with custom mounts I made. They don't need to be crazy high. I think a good guide rule is just enough for you to be able to reach them if you stand up.

    I also have an HD 598, so I'm interested in buying the short 3.5mm cable. Can you post a link to the one you got? Is it an official Sennheiser branded cable?

      +Invisible Man I have a 1.2 meter short cable that came with the special edition 598. It is sennheiser branded, but it's still too long. If you can find a really short on, just get it. It will make your experience better.

    With the two lighthouses i need to setup, I have some high level shelves. Can I just put them on the shelf without screwing them in (The property is rented so i can't drill holes). One of the shelves is spot on at the corner of my playing field, the other one where I would put the other lighthouse is at the other opposite corner BUT it is about 2 metres away from the corner (so it is 2 metres away from the playing area near the corner). But it can see the other lighthouse. Would this be a problem for the vive as it's not exactly 100% at the opposite corner?

    Hi! do you experience that screen door effect?
    i bought vive couple of days ago, went through setup smoothly, but when i put the headset on, i was astonished how terrible it looks, i mean the resolution is comparable to 360p, even worse than that. is this the way it should be?

      Super-sample your Vive, if that doesn't work, go see an optometrist immediately.

    One question: what's the voltage on Lighthouse power cords?
