Extra Glasses - Severly overpriced. Is there a cheap option that works with 3D Vision kit?

Anyone know if they are compatible with nvidia IR shutter glasses?

Extra pair of these glasses are only $49,95!

You can use E-Dimensional glasses with the nVidia driver, so long as your nVidia emitter is connected to your PC. I actually use E-Dimensionals as my main set as they sync much better with my projector and I don't need to wear them upside down (unlike the nVidia glasses which are crippled by their lack of manual sync control despite numerous requests from the community over the last year to give us back this feature).

To set them up, you'll need an E-Dimensional dongle (so just a set of glasses by themselves won't work, although even with the dongle they're much cheaper than buying more nVidia glasses).You connect the dongle to the VGA out port on your graphics card (or to a DVI-VGA converter if your card has no VGA port) and then a cable sends the video signal from the dongle to your monitor whilst another sends the sync signal to your wired E-Dimensional glasses.

I've also tried daisy chaining my Another Eye dongle to my E-Dim one and had four sets of glases running at once (1 wired E-Dim, 1 wireless E-Dim, 1 wired Another Eye and 1 set of nVidias. The only caveat is that the nVidia and E-Dimensional IR signals interfere with each other so you either have to ensure there's no LOS from either emitter to the other glasses or just use wired glasses which obviously don't have this problem.

I just received my spare glasses from Pixmania-pro.

I have had to wait; I ordered them before Christmas. Pixmania charge your card as soon as you place an order, so they've had my money since then, but the glasses are here now.

They cost £60.17 excluding VAT.
