Authorities cited the system’s more detailed data collection capabilities, stating NIBRS is set to become the national standard for crime reporting in 2021, offering more context while enabling law enforcement agencies to use resources more strategically to prevent and combat crime.

The Quest 2 controllers will accept any battery that fits in the AA size standard and provides the right voltage. So you have many options when it comes to rechargeable alternatives.

Officials said 6 million criminal offenses were submitted to NIBRS last year, adding 6,998 law enforcement agencies reported data to NIBRS. About 42 percent of law enforcement agencies who participate in the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program are now submitting their crime data to NIBRS, with the goal of completing the transition to NIBRS by 2021.

You can use NiMH (Nickel-metal Hydride) batteries with an external charger to power your controllers. Most controllers charge four batteries at once in sets of 2. So if you buy four NiMH batteries and charge all of them, you'll always have a charged pair to swap to.

Leaving your rechargeable batteries in for too long without using them can lead to a total discharge that can damage them.

Of the reported offenses, 61 percent were crimes against property, 23 percent were crimes against persons, and 16 percent were crimes against society. A little more than half of crime victims were female while 48 percent of victims were male. Additionally, the data revealed that more than half of the reported victims knew their offenders, but were not related to them.

FBI officials have released information regarding law enforcement agency use of its National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) in 2017, noting the transition to the more informative crime reporting system.

There's definitely an environmental argument to be made for using rechargeables, but honestly, the Quest 2 controllers need a battery swap so infrequently that it doesn't really make much of a difference. Especially since alkaline batteries are safe to dispose of. Still, you will be reducing your waste by using rechargeable alternatives.

The last controller charging option you have is a custom battery pack made specifically for Quest 2 controllers. For example, Anker's Quest 2 charging dock, which we consider one of the best Quest 2 accessories you can buy, comes with batteries and replacement controller battery covers. The covers have external charging contacts, which let the dock charge the included AA batteries by simply slotting them into the dock.

As long as they aren't connected and left in their packaging, alkaline batteries have a long shelf life. Check the expiration date and put a pack in a drawer somewhere for the day you need them. Whether in a controller or another device.

Charging Oculus Quest 2 headsets is as simple as plugging in a cable, but the controllers use removable AA batteries to provide power. This means there's no direct way of recharging the controllers, but workarounds do exist if you need them.

One of the reasons Meta decided to forego an internal rechargeable battery is simple the Quest's controllers use very little power. Using disposable alkaline batteries, their battery life is measured in months.

A much bigger issue than recharging your Quest 2 controllers is whether you should leave the batteries inside them when you don't use your Quest for extended periods of time. Alkaline batteries, especially cheap ones, are prone to leaking corrosive chemicals if left in a device for too long without being used. This can trash your controllers and be an expensive mistake.

So regardless of which battery solution you choose, if you aren't going to use your Quest 2 for a few weeks or more, it's probably a good idea to take the batteries out until you need them again.

“We want to have greater transparency and accountability in policing,” FBI Director Christopher Wray said. “One way to get there is by improving the data. That data will give us a more complete picture of what’s really going on in our communities and allow us to do what we need to do to keep people safe.”

Using a dedicated charger can be inconvenient, so we actually use lithium AA batteries that recharge using USB power. Some of these batteries have a removable cap that allows you to insert them into a USB-A port. Others have a port in each battery to allow charging with a cable.

Considering how long Quest 2 controller batteries last, the simplest strategy is to buy spare disposable AA batteries and keep them on hand when your current batteries run out of power. It's faster than recharging them anyway and you'll be back to beating those sabers in no time.

This works well, but in our experience, these lithium batteries tend to self-discharge whether you use the controllers or not. We don't know if this is due to self-discharging built into the battery's circuitry or just the nature of lithium-ion battery chemistry, but the long battery life of other batteries in Quest controllers isn't quite there with the lithium batteries we've tried. Of course, you can quickly and easily recharge them, so it's not a major tradeoff.

This reduces or eliminates the need for controller battery charging unless you're a truly heavy user of VR. Even then, you may never run into this issue. The folks over at Upload VR, who we assume use VR more than most people, only had to change controller batteries after three months! The most frequently people have to change batteries seems to be to be around the one-month mark. That's serious battery endurance.
