I have been using mine as a dash cam so far rigged to an old tom tom mount. Very easy to use , download, charge, etc which is what I wanted. I have had a bit of trouble sourcing spare mounts outside the USA so bought these for bike mounting https://www.screwfix.com/p/tesla-20-25m ... pack/9412v

Thanks Allen, I tried to find a place to mount in the Kangoo but these modern cars don't have any useful edges ... luckily my bike does so I think I can use the mount that comes with it as well as the self adhesive on my crash helmet. I've bought it from an on-line shop that also has real branches, one of which is in Barcelona so i can see if I can get spare mounts there. The HEDCAM did have a wider range of mounts but as I said above not available at all in Spain as far as I could see.

By the time the camera arrives I should also have had delivery of some bits to get my bike back on the road too so some experimenting planned! :D

Cheers

PS your company also deals in the EU, could be really useful as we're having building works next year ...
