    I Just want to use a vive tracker for motion compensetaion. I got a used one from ebay.
    If it's fully load it seems to work. But after a while it floats away in vr and motion comp. Goes crazy.... I read about reflective surfaces and stuff.... But why does it work for 10 minutes and then it goes nuts....? With one index Controller it works perfekt... It happens also with usb charging while Using..... I tried several rooms and other lighthouse Position.... Nothing helps. Maybe de battery is bad? Does anybody know if that happens with a nearly dead battery in the tracker ?
