    Drift is kinda neat because you can network the cameras to get front and back (or even panoramic) coverage, but I sure wouldn’t want to try putting more than 1 of them on a helmet lol

    I also mount mine to downhill MTB helmets and ebike helmets, which helps a ton with weight.

      Oh, man! I love my Drift Ghost X. It’s seen around 20,000km worth of bike and e-scooter rides by this point - hot summers, sub zero winters, rain, hail, you name it! I’ve been wanting to pull the trigger on a newer model, just to get image stabilization and mount one on the front and one on the rear.

      But I’m not liking the built-in battery, no matter how long it lasts. I picked up one of their extended batteries, which I can swap out any time to extend the life of this camera for many years beyond "500 charge cycles).

      Drift is one of the few companies who actually make affordable dash cams for non-cars.
