Got a USB Fan...

[Nibbio]

...sitting on top of the monitor, blowing on my face and headset while playing.

 

HMD used to get a little hot during long play sessions, and sometimes the lenses would steam up.

 

Very comfortable, highly recommended, and increases realism when flying the I-16

I have a Mitsubushi ductless air unit on the wall in front of and above me, oscillating nice cold air down onto me whilst flying.

Never have a problem with sweating or lens fogging. Feels pretty nice!

I've been using a fan since I bought CV1 a year ago. I would not play without it.

Me too... and if the lenses still show a problem of steaming, I clean them with a liquid solution used for recorders flute to prevent condensation and deteriorating the sound when played: 50% water, 50% alcohol (pharmaceutical or even...vodka!) and a bit of dishwashing liquid! Do you have a picture of the usb fan you use? Does it prevent fog to the same point of a fan on the desk?

Here's the fan: https://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B06XY9H9DZ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

 

It sits maybe 50 cm from my face, taped to the top of the monitor, lenses never fog. Plug'n play, didn't even need to overclock it

Check Out the company VR-cover.com , they send from Thailand , they got really good foam replacement solutions. My Rift sits on the face with leather.. no fogging whatsoever, and not even expensive. Plus, a nice feel. Only bummer is they don't have latex :D

Thx, cool stuff. You got the basic set? https://vrcover.com/product/oculus-rift-facial-interface-foam-replacement-basic-set/

Yes, precisely. I recommend it. Then based on temperature and preference, you can switch between leather and the additional cotton. The latter completely eliminates the embarassing red diver's goggle-lines on our faces
