Assistive Tech: As Easy as 1, 2, 3!
Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays from the LowCostAT team! 🎄 Wishing you a safe and restful break.

Ensure your therapy sessions remain uninterrupted and comfortable with the Quest 3 Elite Strap with Battery. This premium accessory is a vital piece of assistive technology that serves a dual purpose: it extends the active runtime of your VR headset by up to 2 hours, and it acts as an ergonomic counter-weight to reduce neck strain. It is the ultimate upgrade for NDIS participants engaged in physical rehabilitation, exposure therapy, or social skills groups.
Standard VR headsets can run out of power quickly and feel front-heavy. This battery strap directly addresses these barriers to effective therapy:
Enabling Longer Therapy Sessions: Many therapeutic applications (such as social skills groups or exposure therapy) require sessions longer than the standard headset battery allows. This strap provides up to 2 additional hours of power, ensuring the device doesn't shut down mid-session, which can be distressing or disruptive to progress.
Superior Ergonomics & Counter-Balancing: The battery is strategically placed at the back of the head. This acts as a counter-weight to the front-heavy visor, redistributing the load evenly. For participants with neck weakness, chronic pain, or fatigue, this balance is crucial for tolerating the headset for the duration of a session.
Facilitating Independent Use: The precision adjustment dial allows users with limited fine motor skills to easily tighten or loosen the strap with one hand. Additionally, the intelligent system charges both the strap and headset simultaneously via a single cable, simplifying the charging routine for users with executive function challenges.
Extended 2-Hour Runtime: Doubles the effective life of your headset, allowing for extended rehabilitation exercises, mindfulness sessions, or social interaction without low-battery anxiety.
Ergonomic Counter-Weight Design: The rear battery naturally balances the headset, lifting pressure off the cheeks and forehead. This creates a "floating" feel that significantly reduces physical strain during use.
Flexible Silicone Support: The soft, cupped rear support cradles the head securely, providing stability during active physical therapy movements (exergaming) and reducing the need for constant readjustment.
Precision Fit Wheel: A simple twist of the rear dial ensures a snug, custom fit for any head size, making it easy to put on and take off independently.
Smart Unified Charging: Plug your charging cable into the strap, and it intelligently charges both the battery and the headset efficiently. You can also view the combined battery level directly inside the VR interface.
