Yes, you need also these here to aim the lighthouses slightly down. (about 35°)

Here are some other ideas on how to mount lighthouses without drilling, because the footprint of these light stands is very large and they are not very sturdy. One sligh touch can send them swinging and while in VR this can result in some heavy nausea.

I would suggest looking into the "contractor pole mount" or the "extension rod setup". You can also use shower cutrain rods and then use clamps to mount the lighthouses on them.

I have pretty much these same poles for my setup. You'll need to angle them down as many have said already so you need something like this too: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Eggsnow-Tripod-Bracket-Ballhead-Camera-2pcs/dp/B01ESJ7754/ref=pd_bxgy_421_img_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=NTFJ2QSNHZ22KBW4AWWE

Works fine for me in my basement. They are far enough away I don't touch them while playing and I don't get any vibration from them. I found takes a little tweaking and some serious tightening and re-tightening to get it right though.

I like the shower rod idea too but wouldn't work well in my space but probably easier to deal with and easy to setup.

I bought some this week. Let me find what I have.

The stands are supposed to arrive tomorrow so I'll finally do the setup. (Controllers are plugged in at my desk though.)

Non Drilling solutions as I'm not in a situation where i can drill mounts into the walls:

Personally (UK) i have used these two products, work a charm, a bit of a wide base so not ideal for smaller areas.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01ESJ7754/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I then moved house and switched to these, these are great, one fits on the curtain rail, and the other fits on the banister uprights. Clamp goes pretty wide.

But for your own home, just attach em, its only two small holes and you can patch it easy. A little toothpaste will do the trick if you don't feel like going to Lowe's for the paste.

If paint matching is a concern, bring a chip and they can match for you whenever you go to move.

You're spending $800 on this. Tripods are great for traveling with the vive, but at home, don't risk knocking over your expensive sensitive lighthouses just to save $10 on plaster when you move.

Mine are mounted on my wall but I recently took my Vive to a mates house. I bought these stands and these ballhead bracket things so I can swivel the lighthouse to the correct angle. They worked great. They were stable enough to have me and a bunch of mates jumping around in VR without them falling over.

Somebody else in this post recommended using the floor to ceiling support. If I was using the stands in my own home and they were a permanent support system rather then something I want to be able to fold up and shove in my car then I would probably go with them.

When it's all said and done you can be up and running in under an hour. The hardest part is figuring out where to put the lighthouses. I recommend picking up some cheap photography lightstands on amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01ESJ7754/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Makes things nice and easy to setup and you don't have to worry about drilling holes in your walls.

I tried finding the lighthouse ball mounts with no luck on HTC site.

These will work though from Amazon and they are cheap. They are ball mounts for camera equipment that will fit the Vive.

I can vouch for the Fovitec stands, however I can't vouch for the mount as I have a different brand.

Setup was easy, as per the other reply don't install any of the bullshit that HTC wants to install, just use SteamVR.

Get OpenVR advanced settings.

Get Chaperone Tweak.

When you're playing if you start to feel a little bit sick, do not push through it. Stop playing for a while until you feel OK. You cannot push through it, it'll just get worse and your second and third day will be like mine, outside of VR.
