I would like to buy a helmet cam, advice please

[James in Brum]

Hello TMBF,

after my experience the other day of being driven into I have decided to get a helmet camera to have access to evidence. What should I buy? I have done a little bit of looking and the drift xl looks good but expensive. Any advice? Thank you.

xl is ghost just with longer battery life and more importantly better waterproofing, its a small unobtrusive camera that goes well on the side of the lid

Thanks for the advice. Drift seems likely. Is the x a bit waterproof? Alright in rain but not water or not at all waterproof?

I think you can get a case for them.

Hello

I use the Drift X. I have it set to loop recording, I have been commuting to and from work for the last 2 years in all weathers and for the year I have owned it, it has worked fine. I think the casing is for taking the camera underwater. I used to look at the footage each week, surprising how many people I filmed either on their phone or going through traffic lights on red. I don't bother looking anymore, sadly It's all become the norm these days.
