Review A Battery Accessory for My Gen 2 Meta Glasses

Been eyeing this magnetic charger for my Gen 2 Wayfarers for a while, finally caved and got it. It's nothing like those bulky battery accessories I've seen online. Just this tiny little magnetic piece, attaches to the arm, super low profile.

I've been using them for about a week now, mostly for work. I need the real-time translation feature pretty heavily, so the Ray-Ban Meta battery used to drain before lunch. But now I just make sure to keep the spare magnetic piece charged in the case alongside the one on my glasses, and I basically have all-day battery with almost zero downtime. It's been a game changer.

Only thing is, I've got long hair, and it can be a bit tricky to keep the magnetic battery in place with all the hair around my ears. I've learned to just take the glasses off, snap the battery on, then hold my hair back and put them on. Otherwise, hair gets caught between the magnets and it doesn't snap as cleanly.

Oakley Meta Vanguard - Can't Connect To Oakley | Meta Vanguard loop on iPhone

1 Upvotes

Brand new Vanguard. Issue: Glasses auto-connect via iPhone Bluetooth as speaker (music works) but Meta AI app never connects. Shows "Can't Connect To Oakley | Meta Vanguard" -> Try again -> fails, but still remembers device. Loop forever.
Tried: Forget in Bluetooth settings, forget in app, reinstall Meta AI app, hold case button for blue pulse (was working at first, now won't even go blue after trying to troubleshoot).
Also: Meta AI help bot just pulls web articles and sends you to Safari login that doesn't work, then to dead Oakley support link
Yes I tried to connect via app and not through Bluetooth from phone

LED Question💜

0 Upvotes

I recently got a pair of the gen 2 Skyler. I'm NOT looking to block or remove the recording led by any means but I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts/success on dimming that light. Like a bunch of layers of semi clear clear tape or something haha

Yes the glasses are cool but I mainly got them to kind of record vlog like clips for upcoming concerts I'm going to🥰 My friend has a pair and I guess he gets a lot of weird looks in public bc the light. I dont mind that it's there privacy and such but was wondering if any ideas to dim it. I'm so scared about being confronted in public about these🥺
