8KX Lighthouse 2.0 Standby

I think you misunderstood me - I have an old vive with Lighthouse 2.0 lighthouses with white LEDs. The old vive can ONLY utilize steam to manage firmware, and is supposedly compatible with the 2.0 lighthouses… so if Valve has locked PiMax devices out when it comes to updating valve device firmware, plugging the old vive in should bypass that.

Valve did not lock out Pimax devices. The problem is that the only way to update v2 LH is via bluetooth and the only bluetooth supported by SteamVR are the BT chips in HTC or Valve headsets (Vive, Index, etc.)

@jimh54 I have seen an old LHs (kind of version 1.5), which had white LED as well. But it is hard to say which version you have just by the LED color.

It might work. Try it an let me know. I have an original Vive still (Haven’t used it in over a year though).
