Just added two new products to the range. They can be viewed and purchased here:
The Deluxe strap has been custom made to fit the standard Pimax soft strap. It improves comfort and rigidity. This makes the headset fit more like a baseball cap rather than a sports bra pulled over your head It also makes adjusting the height of the HMD a little easier by grabbing the center top and dispersing the weight evenly over your head
The Apache strap has been custom made to fit the Vive deluxe audio strap.The DAS is already a great head strap however this mod improves it even further. This level of comfort combined with wide FOV makes the Pimax feel like a military grade. It will work with both OG Vive and Pimax 8K series. You can attach the mod by simply wrapping it round the existing foam lining of the DAS shell. If you don’t mind modding your DAS you can simply trim the Vive foam lining on sides and top where it meets the Studioform strap. The velur material will hook back into place where you have trimmed the lining. A strip of Velcro is included so you can join the two straps at the top for better rigidity
The straps are made from quality foam backed material. I triple layer the straps for extra comfort. All straps are carefully hand made
Just to note the real color of the fabric is jet black not dark blue as it appears in some photos. Been having problems with my camera settings
Pimax Deluxe Strap (for standard Pimax head strap)
I’ve ordered the Pimax “fits like a baseball cap, not a bra” comfort strap. It looks like it will arrive at least a month before my 8K. I’ll keep it next to the base station I can’t use yet.
I don’t expect to get my “real” Pimax deluxe head strap for many months, so this will tide me over until then.
I wish they were all the same The three straps are custom made to each headset. The Pimax strap is much longer but you can probably extend yours with extra Velcro
I knew you would be tempted. It fits like a glove I swear. Trim the DAS lining where it meets the strap for best fitment. You can always keep the offcuts and put them back in. The Velcronics are well engineered in the Vive DAS
You wouldn’t believe I spent 2 hours taking through the lens videos and I deleted them by accident. They were awesome too!! I will defiantly take more when I get time
