Do these glasses:

work with 3D Vision 2 monitors? (I have a Asus VG248QE)
And if they do work, what's the difference between these glasses and 3D Vision 2 glasses? (aside the fact that one is wired and the other one isn't, of course)

Yes, they will work.
The 3D Vision 2 glasses have slightly larger lenses and are more comfortable due to the redesign of the arms that go over the ears.
I'm surprised to see a pair available, as far as I know, Nvidia quit making them after only making a small limited amount several years ago.
Thanks for the answer.
So that's the only difference?
I thought they would also have different technology and new features but if the shape is the only difference, then I think I'll buy those.

I don't think the wired glasses are lightboost. They are basically 3D Vision 1 glasses with a wire. Granted, they probably will work, but may be lesser quality (darker).

Pirateguybrush is right.
Lightboost is just a low persistence mode, done entirely by the monitor.

As to the glasses - I advice to buy it. Just don't bend the cable too much, and if I were you - I wouldn't close them, ever. Put them "opened" on the shelf, when not used, but don't move the (I don't know the word in English - the part that goes on your head, over the ears).
My 3D Vision 1 glasses (wireless) are dead because a ribbon inside broke. I tried to repair it, but the LCD part fell off (my clumsy hands :/) and it probably was the end of hope (another death-bend at some point on the ribbon). Professional electronics repair shop tried, but failed. I had to buy new pair.
Beside this known flaw, they had even more known flaw - batteries, but since those are wired - you're not in danger. Be careful, keep in mind that this is ultra-low quality hardware (thanx Nvidia...) and you should be able to enjoy 3D on it, for many years.

My only hesitation with these glasses, is that if Nvidia no longer makes them, they could have been on the shelf for a long time.
Since it's "fulfilled by Amazon", they'll at least be easy to return if there are any problems.
Thanks for the answers everyone.
I've read about battery problems, that's why I was considering on buying these wired ones.
And just as D-Man11 said, I also think they have been on a shelf or a deposit for a long time but since they are wired, they shouldn't have any problems (I think).
I mean, batteries should be charged from time to time to make sure they don't die but that's not the case with these glasses so there shouldn't be any problem... unless there's another possible problem that I don't know about.
The bad thing is, I don't live in the USA. I have to buy them via a proxy seller so I can't return them if they don't work.

That's only true when you speak about Vision 2 glasses. Vision 1 is a flawed design disaster. I googled for a solution to my problem, and I've found many posts on different forums, saying their V1 gone dead, or require a repair like "kickstarting" the battery (after discharging below the critical level), replacing battery, or like in my case - opening and closing destroyed the cable/ribbon inside - this are factory flaws.
I advice to avoid V1 wireless everywhere, since I became aware of this "quality" of V1s.
I have 2 pairs of V2 now, no problems, batteries hold for many, many days, I'm 100% happy with them, at least so far.

My 3D Vision 1 glasses have been badly abused. They're scratched, have been dropped a few times and were never regularly charged, yet they are still holding up great. I'm sure many still have functional 3D Vision 1 glasses.
I bought a pair of 3D Vision 2 glasses, simply because my others were scratched by some of my drunk buddies.
But it's good to know about folding them. I have a drawer in my monitor stand where I place them when not in use, so they never get folded.

Thanks for the correction. Yes Lightboost is part of the monitor. For some reason (probably Nvidia marketing) I thought you needed the 3D Vision 2 glasses to take full advantage of it.
I just tried to do an A/B test with 1 glasses versus 2 and there seems to be barely any difference. That said, I do prefer the look of the 3D Vision 2 glasses, the image just seemed a little more clear and vibrant but that may just be cause my 1 glasses are years old and dusty or whatever.

If anyone has an extra pair of wired nvidia 3d glasses, email me at t.yegor@gmail.com so we can work out a price.
i cant find them anywhere. Very much appreciate it
