First attempt at using my new “Tony Hawk Helmetcam”

I tried to use my new cam this morning on my commute into work. Got everything hooked up ok. Only way to turn this thing off is to open the battery compartment, not a good design. Additionally, when it is turned on but not recording you have a flashing laser pointer to target your subject, very very dangerous. There is no way to disable the laser pointer that I have found, other then the obvious, black electrical tape. Ran into another problem, since you have to open the battery door to turn it off, I dropped a battery just before starting and put it in wrong… So no recording for that ride. Bummer. But I got another shot at it tonight we will see how this goes. I am about to hit the road again, watch out for me.
