slikslik Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 I have a big nose, and I'm trying to find a place to buy a soft nose pad. The nose portion of the Pimax comfort kit is way too hard and plasticky. I was going to cut a piece of regular foam, but I want something designed for VR headsets. Anyone here know where I can buy a nose mod or something similar? Thanks for the help....take care...
ST_Catchov Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 Yeah, well you know what they say about big noses .... . I'm sorry I'm not aware of such comfort devices so I am of no help at all. Perhaps Pimax should consider an adjustable Durante version? I wish you luck ....
ICDP Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 Are you talking about the flexible light blocking piece? I lifted the bottom of the face foam plastic frame and tucked the black nose flap guard underneath out of the way. It stopped quite a bit of irritation for me.
slikslik Posted January 31, 2021 Author Posted January 31, 2021 The plastic nose flap is where the problem is. It's where it sits on the bridge of my nose. There's no padding in that area. I'm OK with how it fits, OK with blocking light etc. but it's a bit too heavy on my nose without some kind of a nose pad. I can cut a piece of regular foam and stick it in the nose area, but I was hoping to find something specifically designed for this type of HMD.
TCW_Brzi_Joe Posted February 4, 2021 Posted February 4, 2021 I removed my nose pad, and I use it without. I have big IPD, so my lenses are not touching my nose. Also without it, ventilation is better, and I can peek trough hole to type something, to grab/leave my controllers, or to look where my cable is. Some say nose pad is needed for immersion; actually it is not. When I dive into game, I do not care for nose gap. The only problem is when sun is shinning too much into my room.
