	FORWARD FACING DESIGN BLACKEYE™ is designed to integrate to your helmet. The large openings in the front keep your helmet's vents open. No air will be blocked from streaming through the openings of your helmet, so you can still enjoy it's original cooling effect. Unlike bullet-style cameras, the BLACKEYE™ camera has a forward facing design and a visor-like positions on your helmet. This minimizes the risk of your helmet getting caught at low hanging branches or other obstacles. The top of your helmet stays the highest point. The streamline style of the BLACKEYE™ will minimize the wind noise on your recording. Just face forward!

HEAD BAND

	ACT RESPONSIBLY Many sports activities come with a natural risk of injury, which always requires responsible behavior. By recording with a head- and helmet camera you might get tempted to elevate your risk-threshold for the sake of spectacular footage. Don't let this happen to you. Be responsible to yourself and to your environment. We want you to enjoy what ever you do, but not break your neck.

	INTEGRATED MICROPHONE The integrated microphone adds kick and reality to your movies. Hear the spray of dirt, the impact of touchdown and the “thunk” of your ice axe. And yes, it'll record everything you say. Sorry mom! Just in case, we added a feature which allows you to adjust the recording volume of the sound. Simply wheel it up or down.

	BATTERY POWER BLACKEYE™ is powered by it’s own battery pack. 8AA batteries provide enough juice for up to 8 hours of use. That's a lot longer than any battery of your recording device will last. Feel free to either use alkaline or rechargeable NIMH batteries.


	CABLES BLACKEYE™ comes with easy-to-use cables. Just plug and play. The length of the cables cables make it convenient to handle your backpack while recording or when taking off your helmet. All plugs and jacks are self-explanatory.


	NO SCREWS NO TAPE KEEP YOUR HELMET’S VIRGINITY. Glues, screws, paint or tape can destroy the structure of your helmet’s material . BLACKEYE™ is gentle to the surfaces of your helmet and does not need any modifications in order to fit. No screws, glue or duck-tape are needed to mount the camera on your helmet. Not a single scratch or dent will be left behind once you take it off again. That's because BLACKEYE™ is made from extremely durable but soft polyurethane material. What bliss.


	After all helmets are expensive equipment and should be treated carefully to ultimately protect you.
