I got these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VAH3KWC?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00

They are kinda pricey, but it seems like a lot of these mounts are selling out. I guess they are selling a bunch because of vive users

Cheap tripods are great for traveling, and I've given over a hundred demos with them, but they kinda get in the way, and the larger you make the footprint (to improve stability) -the more they encroach in your play space.

I use these tripods with these swivel adapter things for my on-the-road show. As long as they don't get bumped, you're good to go.

For home, I use This tension rod and this rod mount - you may need a longer rod- I run it from the top of my dresser to the ceiling and the top of my computer desk to the ceiling. The 87 inch one isn't long enough to go from floor to ceiling for me.

As far as other essentials, two of these help with plugging the lighthouses in. An HDMI Extender, Power extender, and a USB 3.0 Extender (those three work perfectly for me) will make your life 100x more easy, especially if your computer isn't directly next to your play space. The extra 10 feet makes a world of difference for reducing tangles, reducing the number of times you have to stop and untwist your cord, and making you not worry about yanking on your computer when you get to the far corner.

Lastly, this wireless keyboard thing will save you from running back and forth from your desktop.

As far as sweatyness, I got over the ickyness pretty quickly. My friends have mastered basic hygiene, and face sweat doesn't smell all gross or anything. After each demo, I run the foam under the sink to rinse it off, then dab it with a paper towel and set it on a box fan to dry. It's good to go as soon as the next person is done and I repeat the process. I ended up buying a set of new face foams from the HTC website after I lost my narrow face foam though :(

These work really well for me in hours long sessions. They're cheap but very much sturdy enough: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001WB02Z4/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (comes in a set of two so buy one)

I use these to mount the Lighthouses:

You know what's funny, too, is these ended up being better than the bookshelf method as my shelves would vibrate with any activity in the room.

I believe someone asked if the are 1/4 thread at top and the answer was yes, but check yourself. Also you will need these to be able to angle the tripods:

Does these look like good stands for the vive? by Wheellord


Hi
i am about to buy the vive, but have no walls to put the lighthouses on, so I need some stands
The trouble is they must be available to ship to Norway.
I have found these, but need some feedback to see if these will work
