You’re a little slow. I’ll spell this out for you. Headset to battery with built in connector. Included battery to any battery bank of your choice with any usb-c cable.

Imagine if you could just connect it to any battery bank, like I do with my Quest 2 via USB-C. Only 300 bucks.

I’m just correcting the guy who said this was not possible and that Vision Pro did not use usb-c. Didn’t realize people don’t like facts around here.

It uses a proprietary lightning connector on the battery end on the cable for the vision pro, so no it's not possible to simply plug the Vision Pro into any USB-C battery bank, you can however plug it's proprietary battery into USB-C to charge it, which is hillarious

I will give it to @ji17br@lemmy.ml, it IS possible to Daisy Chain a usb-c battery pack to the actual battery of the apple vision pro, but that is a fire hazard, do NOT try it. But i still dont get it if he is just a troll, or a apple fanboy who cant read because everything can be read through siri?

[–] ji17br@lemmy.ml 2 points 9 months ago

I would never buy a Vision Pro, doesn’t mean I’m not going to correct people when they are wrong about tech.

Like said, its totally useless either way, either to an another powerbank or to the wall socket. Still it would be utterly useless and could be a fire hazard to daisy chain powerbanks. And next time you can be a little bit more respectful. I did not offended you or said something bad to you.

You read something that was true, falsely claimed it was incorrect, a different person corrected you, and rather than checking to see if you were right, which would be a simple google search, you doubled down that something is not possible. And now that you realize you’re wrong you move the goalposts and say it’s useless either way. It’s exhausting dealing with people like you.

I dont get what you want too. You said you can connect DIRECTLY to the headset with usb-c, then after another comment you said its possible to daisy chain it onto the battery pack ( that is dangerous ), then you said i am lying about that. I dont know anymore too, its just funny to discuss with people like you.

You apple fanboys are more fanatic into the product than everyone else.

[–] ji17br@lemmy.ml 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Why are you continuing to lie? I never said you can connect directly to it. The parent comment said

“You can use any USB battery with it, just plug it into the battery pack.”

Which is absolutely true. You claimed it was false. I corrected you. I’ve made no other claims about wanting a Vision Pro, loving Apple, or anything else that you are insinuating. Just take the L dude.

I could not find any resources that charging a the Vision Pro battery from an external battery is a safety hazard. It’s using USB spec for power delivery, as long as it receives the correct voltage and current it wouldn’t care what is on the other end.

Sure, some cheap battery banks are not designed to be charged and discharged at the same time, but this is clearly not the case here.

[–] Rooki@lemmy.world -3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

this is you? You DID NOT say you can daisy chain battery packs, you said you can plug it from a usb-c into a wallsocket. I cant decide if you are a troll or just ignorant.

Now you say, you can directly charge the Vision pro with an external battery pack, but who has a lightning connector? and who really builds that?

[–] ji17br@lemmy.ml 4 points 9 months ago

Holy shit dude. You still don’t understand? There is no lighting connector involved.

The cable coming out of the battery pack and goes to the wall is standard usb-c. Rather than plugging this usb-c connector into the included wall adapter, you could plug it into a battery that supports usb-c power delivery.

I honestly don’t know how I can make it any clearer for you.
