From what Pre users have said, they use a 2.1x5.5mm DC plug, so if that is the case then either of those links will work. Personally, I'll be getting white ones so that they don't stand out as much on my walls.

> One cool thing your Rift works with your Vive linkbox..
Well it used to on the original vive linkbox, but remember the pro has a proprietary "3-in-1" connector on the HMD side of the linkbox now.

Yeah it seems from Vive Pre owners the lighthouses use generic 2.1x5.5mm DC plugs.

Just ordered this.
/u/DrNotThatEvil You should check to see if your outlets are close enough to your intended base station locations. The cord length is 8', so putting these up high(recommended), doesn't give you much length to work with to reach an outlet. This of course can be done with an extension cord, however I just found this while looking for the cord length(which I'm going to swap an extension cord with myself)
