Battery backpack for Quest 2

This is a super simple project to do using only 5 parts. Can power anything that requires it hands-free!

This was inspired by this product but I didn't like the large back part which could get sweaty and already had some of the parts I could use.

Posture Corrector Back Body Brace Lumbar Spinal Shoulder Support Belt XL Size

~£5 (eBay)

I got the XL size which allows freedom of movement. But can maybe get away with a large if you're smallish. Medium is too tight.

Elough 0.5cm 90 Degree U Bend Data Games Charge Cable USB C

~£2 (AliExpress)

Or to connect direct to headset, then get this one ~£3 (eBay):

Note: You can use any usb cable, I chose the u-bend one as it'll attach to the BoboVR M2 battery without any strain.

Compact camera carry case with a belt holder (important)

~£4 (eBay)

A 10-20,000mA battery pack. I got a Xiaomi NDY-02-AD 10400 mAh Power Bank

~£15 (Get any good battery bank that'll fit the compact camera case!)

VELCRO® Brand Hook and loop ONE-WRAP® double sided Strapping Black 50mm width

~£3 (Amazon)

Wrap the Velcro around the posture corrector and through the belt holder of the camera case:

Now drop battery in the case and plug in usb cable:

Enjoy longer play times!
