heloguy Posted May 16, 2024 Posted May 16, 2024 Is the 15mm face pad discontinued? I'm waiting on prescription lenses to arrive, and I'm worried that the 11mm pad is too thin. I my eyelashes already brush the lenses with the headset on. Tried to ask on the Pimax website, but no answer through the live chat. i9 12900k @ 4.9ghz, 64gb RAM Nvidia RTX 3090 Windows 11 x64 Pimax Crystal VP Force Rhino w/RS F16GRH, Virpil TCS Rotor Plus AH-64 Collective, BRD F1 Pedals, WH Throttle, FSSB R3 w/WH Grip, PointCTRL v2
Calvin.Pimax Posted May 16, 2024 Posted May 16, 2024 Maybe you could consider the StudioFormCreative's Crystal foam pad? https://www.studioformcreative.com/product-page/pimax-crystal-pu-face-foam-leather-ultimate-upgrade-kit 1
heloguy Posted May 16, 2024 Author Posted May 16, 2024 Only issue I have with that is there is no forehead portion. Is this confirmation that the 15mm face pad is discontinued, or just temporarily unavailable? i9 12900k @ 4.9ghz, 64gb RAM Nvidia RTX 3090 Windows 11 x64 Pimax Crystal VP Force Rhino w/RS F16GRH, Virpil TCS Rotor Plus AH-64 Collective, BRD F1 Pedals, WH Throttle, FSSB R3 w/WH Grip, PointCTRL v2

Johnny Dioxin Posted May 17, 2024 Posted May 17, 2024 (edited) Does anyone know if Crystal accessories would fit the Crystal Light? From what I understand, it's the same headset just with tech removed. Quote I tried this morning, no answer. I'll try again, I guess.

heloguy Posted May 17, 2024 Author Posted May 17, 2024 Got an answer back from Pimax. They said they will eventually refill the 15mm foam pad. No timeline given. 3 hours ago, hsth said: I'm really happy with this one Face Foam for PIMAX Crystal Face Cushion Replacement Eye Foam Pad Headset Foam Wide Face Mask Accessories Face Accessories: Amazon.de: Electronics & Photo Tried the Pimax 11 and 15 mm foams but with this one I do not feel the need for more/less distance to my eyes.

Hopefully it gives enough clearance with prescription lenses. i9 12900k @ 4.9ghz, 64gb RAM Nvidia RTX 3090 Windows 11 x64 Pimax Crystal VP Force Rhino w/RS F16GRH, Virpil TCS Rotor Plus AH-64 Collective, BRD F1 Pedals, WH Throttle, FSSB R3 w/WH Grip, PointCTRL v2
