My metaquest two will not charge past 11%. And dies very fast. Do I need to replace the battery and slide the headset?

Hello there, 

 

Thank you for getting in touch with Meta Quest Support. We understand that you are having some issues with the battery life on your Meta Quest 2 not lasting as long as you expect. We will give you some handy advice that you can take to assist you in prolonging the battery life on your headset. 

 

  • Using charging cables and adapters other than the official charging cable/adapter can damage the battery slowly over time.
    • This is due to different charging cables and adapters having different voltages and amperages.
  • Leaving the headset plugged in for days or weeks at a time can damage the battery over time, especially if the headset is on, or asleep rather than turned off.
  • Battery life will vary depending on use. Some features, such as increasing the refresh rate, may consume more power depleting the battery faster. If changes have been made that alter the headset's performance, either through the Experimental Features or through a third-party app, turn off the features or revert the changes and test the headset performance without these features/settings changes.
  • Rechargeable batteries will naturally become less effective over time. Even if the customer claims that the battery used to last longer previously, if the battery is getting around 2 hours of usage it is operating within its expected parameters.
  • For some additional tips, please follow the handy link here to, Maximize the battery life of your Meta Quest headset.

We hope these steps have helped. If you are still having issues with your Battery however, please get back to us with some information on your account, so that we can check the status of the warranty on your Meta Quest 2. The details we require are the following.
