Magnetic Charging Dock/Stand Holder and Organizer for Valve Index VR Controller (Black)

I just picked up this charging stand and have been very pleased with it. It's built sturdy and charge the controllers pretty quickly.While shopping, I compared it to the VRGE & AMVR charging docks, and found this to be the best choice.Power Delivery:The single USB-C cable (which it doesn't include, not a huge deal since the Knuckles come with 2) approach is nice, and makes it so you can swap cords should yours get damaged. You'll also need to provide your own 5a/2.5v adapter. The AMVR dock also is single cable, but the cable is hard wired in, and the VRGE dock uses 2 separate USB C cables.Controller to Dock Hookup:It uses magnetic USB-C inserts to go into your controllers, and then snap into place when you dock them, so no more plugging and unplugging a charging cable to your controller and possibly damaging the port. The AMVR also has this type of charge style, but based on pictures it looked like the type of charging contacts you'd find in accessories for a Bluetooth earpiece charge kit. These styles have been unreliable for me in that type of tech, and based on Amazon reviews, it's the same for the AMVR dock. The VRGE dock has cable plugs that come up through it, and have to be plugged in and out of the controller every time.Controller Stability:The perfectly cut out insert in the dock along with the magnetic connection keep the controller rock solid without exerting pressure on any one part of the controller. The magnets are a bit strong, and a bit of downward force from your free hand or your pinky will be needed on the base or the entire thing will lift up. The AMVR looks to provide good support also with it's plastic handle pieces, but the other points above kept me away. With the VRGE one, the main thing keeping the controllers stable and upright is the USB plug they're sitting on... yikes.Price:It's a bit pricey, the highest priced at $49, considering they don't include cabling, but in my opinion is worth it over the VRGE at $45 or the AMVR at $35.Overall I definitely recommend this one if you're in the market for a controller dock for your Knuckles. Hope I could help someone with this! :)TLDR:Pros:- Magnetic charging keeps controller wear down.- Single cable charging for both controllers.- Built sturdy.- Looks good.Cons:- A bit pricey.- Doesn't include USB-C cable or 5a/2.5v adapter for cable.Neutral:- Magnets might be a little too strong for some peoples' likes.

Works perfectly! I love that the controllers slot in almost effortlessly, and I appreciate that some sticky-pads were included to hold the charging station down; the downsides are that it doesn't come with a USB-C cable, and doesn't have any sort of power switch. The argument for a power switch is so that I can leave the controllers in the station but prevent trickle-charging, which can degrade battery life of the knuckles.

Thank you to whoever invented this thing. Its a gamechanger, and I can even flip my controllers around and charge them the other way which I prefer doing but it looks good the other way too. I also appreciate the foam pads that came with it to go on the bottom. These little guys are a must have esspecially so it doesn't slide everywhere and scratch stuff up. 10/10 great way to organize and keep your controllers in good condition!

It fits nice on my desk and charges fast and well

As stated on the product page, this item only comes with the charging station itself and the two magnetic inserts that you plug into your USB-C ports on the bottom of your controllers. You have to provide your own charger and USB-C cables.What I ended up doing was buying this wall charger: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09GJXVHVK, which comes equipped with 3 USB-C and 3 USB-A ports. I then used the USB-A/USB-C adapter cable that came packaged with the controllers to connect this charging station to the wall charger. There is a picture attached for reference.Prior to buying this, I was charging my controllers by connecting them to my desktop PC (with the provided USB-A/USB-C adapter cables), while they just kind of dangled/laid on the floor. As you can imagine, cabling was a mess, and it also just looked really tacky.Not only does this charging station charge my controllers conveniently while making my VR play area slightly less cluttered, it also just works as a nice place to put away my controllers whenever they aren't in use.
