Just grabbed the 1280 x 960 HD version comes with the micro sd card...... should be fun to try out

Jeez you could mount these things anywhere on a bike

Hey RideRed ...... was that vid taken in Australia ?

i think it only took mine about a week and 1/2.................had its upside down because its easier to put the Velcro on the bottom side of the camera where theres no buttons

Wow.. so cheap for decent quality... I'm looking at mounting options for my flip.. but that might work better...


How long of a video can you take? is it totally dependent on your SD card? I wonder how much memory was used by that 2 minutes..

Come to find out the video for all these Key Fob type cams is 720 x 480 for the most part
and the real high rez spec's only apply to still images grabbed with them
