    Hi WestCoast Rider,
    I didn't know about 30 days, thanks. a good way to check it.
    are you riding long time with this camera? did you use the camera on hwy mounted on helmet? if so, how do you find the wind resistance to the square shape ? ...or do you mount it somewhere else?

    Southpoint - I think you have been waiting since Christmas to test yours on the road, haven't you?

    I have tested mine on the road. I have 3 mounting locations set up. My helmet, my front number plate and my rear fender. The bike mounts work great on the pavement, but there is some vibration on gravel. Check out this video, it utilizes all 3 mounts.

    As for noticing the camera on your helmet, you won't even know it's there (or not). I safety wire the camera to the peak of my helmet just in case the mount lets go.

    One other consideration that has not been mentioned. HD video takes up a HUGE amount of storage space on your computer. You can easily come back from a ride with 10 GB of video. You will need to have a good size hard drive and/or backup drive.

    As WestCoast Rider said, just try one. I don't think you will be disappointed and want to take it back.
