Hibloks Meta Quest 2 Anti-Fog Cooling Fan & Interface Review
17In this video, I check out the Hibloks Meta Quest 2 Anti-Fog Cooling Fan & Interface. You can buy this Fan Cooling Mask for $28.99 from Amazon US ➡️ https://amzn.to/3NqCvOr, for £26.34 from Amazon UK ➡️ https://amzn.to/3pjgdWQ or for $69.68 from Amazon AU ➡️ https://amzn.to/3qUdpQl
This Quest 2 accessory clips onto your headset via its own foam padded facial interface and once powered and turned on, it will blow cool air into your headset to reduce fogging and generally cool inside of the interface to make it more comfortable during intense sessions and more so if you suffer with fogging generally in your VR headset.
The interface itself is fairly simple, had some rigidity to it, so that means its tough foam padding stays put without any over-movement inside the headset whilst playing intensely. The fan component then slides into the two holes that go into the facial interface and clips in place.
The fan has two modes, one automatic mode that varies speeds between high and low to keep a consistent flow of cool air without going at full speed. This not only helps with battery life of its 700mAh battery to enable up to 3hours 30 minutes of run time. You can chose to keep it powered via a battery strap or cable connected to the Quest 2 power port, but there is no through port and the cable supplied is rather long for this kind of use - an opportunity missed there.
Right angled cables connecting to the fan's power port will find it will only go in one way without restricting the power mode switch, so if your strap battery cable is short, you might have to reach for an alternative means of plugging it in. Switching the port and mode switch over would have helped users here, or locate the port closer to the left side for an easier plug-in experience.
The fan is low in its operation volume, which can't be said for some other fan solutions I've tried. So that's a bonus. Auto mode varies its speed and with that it makes it an ideal mode for movie watching.
From my experience, I found you don't really need to have it running all the time, as this accessory clears fogging very quickly, seconds in fact, so if you suffer intermittent fogging, then switching it on, when you need to clear the lenses, will greatly help lengthen battery life and the need to recharge it as often.
Whether all this requires spending $28 is down to your own experience. For me, who doesn't suffer from fogging, it is an accessory that's a little wasted on me, but should you fog up often, then this fan solution from Hibloks is certainly worth checking out.
