I am pleased with my Velo Muvi, but wondered how they compare.

I too have the Muvi, but I was intrigued with these I saw whilst over in the States - $90 there. Found exactly the same ones on eBay for much, much less. The build quality is a bit cheap and nasty but the picture quality compares well with the Muvi

I wonder how good the mounting band would be on a regular helmet rather than the skater/bmx style shown?.

The glasses look like a repackaged md 80 clone , and i suspect would have the same issues with battery life ,

They sell these at Maplins but I do not think they are waterproof

I have one.

My one is slightly less good than the MD80, but not enough to worry about. It eats batteries. I tried some cheapies and they lasted about half a mile. I bought some rechargeable 1250mA AAA batteries and they are good, last about one and a half hours. A big adavntage over the MD80 is that you can change batteries on the road, a couple of spare batteries wont weigh you down. The camera is fairly large so is very visible, your decision wether that is an advantage.

All in all I prefer my MD80, but the ActionCam does have some advantages.

The camera rotates through 360 degrees on the base plate attatched to the strap. I have mine laced through the vent slots in the helmet rather than round the helmet.

I have bought many cameras from Dogcamsport,they worked very well, and they have a new item (mini dvr3),it is better from video quality and other points. It is waterproof as well.

I prefer carrying 2x MUVI.I found that camera too bulky and eventually it stopped working.My two MUVI's still work and they are small.

I found that camera too heavy on my helmet as opposed to a MUVI which is hardly noticeable.

I think I may havealso fitted it on my right fork at one time.

I suspect Gramza works for the manufacturer of the mini dvr3 as 3 posts total on 3 old threads all about how wonderful they are.
