A motorcycle helmet camera is a considerable investment and you will want to make sure that it does not get damaged as soon as you start to use it. There are a few things that you can do to protect it.
Firstly, make sure that you buy a product that is robust. A helmet-mounted camera needs to be waterproof because it will be exposed to the rain. If it is not tearproof, it needs to come with a waterproof case. It also needs to be ruggedly constructed and encased in a strong housing that will protect all the delicate technology inside.
Secondly, you can play a part in protecting it. Think about what you are doing when riding, especially if you are off-road. Don’t take risks with low tunnels or tree branches. They could damage your device but could also cause you injury.
