My two-year-old Quest 2 headset with Elite Battery Strap is now not charging. The light turns orange, but the battery is not being refilled. I’m down to 55%, and 83% on the supplemental battery. And the numbers don’t go up no matter how long I charge.
I tried a brand new cable and adapter, and I’m still getting nowhere.
Please advise. Do I need a new headset?

This won't help. You have to be aware of the issue it's in other threads here. It's the exact same issue here: https://forums.oculusvr.com/t5/Oculus-Quest-2-and-Quest/Quest-2-not-charging-pass-55/td-p/892387 and there are other threads. I've been offered a RMA and only have a few days to return it left. I'm afraid I won't get a replacement for months based on other threads but I recommend you do the same.
Stephanie if you want your quest to charge for now, turn it completely off. Then power it on holding the power and volume button. Once you see the Meta logo let go of the buttons and plug it in. It will charge to 100%.
Support is pretending like this isn't an issue and won't let us know if our batteries are a danger or if this is some kind of bug.
