I'm looking into one of these for a motorcycle helmet, how long will it record for before you have to manually wipe it? Or does it automatically do so

You have to manually wipe it to re-record. Its capacity to record depends on the size of the memory card. I replaced the card that came with it because it had a very limited capacity (I think less than an hour at high resolution). With my 32 Gb SD card, it easily stores more than 4-hours of high resolution video.

That depends on the size of SD card you get. I use a 32gb SD card and I get about 4 hours of 1080 video. As far as for the erasing of the memory card, you'll have to do that yourself.

The old files erase and the camera keeps recording without any input from you. Things to note get a trusted 32 gig card and format it in the camera and if you want to keep a event manually lock that video file so the camera does not erase it. If your vehicle bounces around like my semi truck turn off the G sensor option or you will have a lot of locked video files

I did it in the house and left it in for about 20 hrs. I put pressure on it for about 5 min. I have one on my snowmobile helment and one on my 4 wheeler helmet. It has held strong on the snowmobile but only has lasted about 6 months on the quad.

Totally weird, sounds like you've done all the right things...tried a razor blade yet? Sounds like it is impregnated into the glass, the way auto windshields have an 8 inch runner of tint across the top. I still don't think the adhesive remover has any value...have you tried goof off or OOPs? Since I can't picture it, I guess if it didn't look to weird you could put the film right over the top & hope it doesn't look bizarre. Sorry that's all I got

probably removes just about everything, I had to use it twice for a full clean, yet my windows have nvr been this clean ever!! almost like I don't have glass, I have not tried to remove the rain-x cause I like how it works and even dust doesn't stay on my windows like it used to. In my neighborhood my car seems to have the cleanest windows even after sitting and collecting dust for 2 weeks.

No. If you stuck this on your helmet an attahced your camera you have found out the hard way. If you have not tried this, please reconsider.

Not sure what 'normal' might be. A very small drop of the helmet would not damage the mirror. The arm piece is made of plastic (good quality and pretty substantial). I keep my helmet in a drawer in the garage. A few times the mirror has taken a hit as it's been put away - realigns the location, but does no damage. The arm is modular and sections can come apart - but just snap back in without any problem. Better made the pretty much any other mirror that I've used.

How do you record something on it? I want to put it inside of a stuffed animal and don't want what was recorded on it to be erased. So is it real easy to rerecord?

It only holds one recording. Each time you record it erases the previous recording.

I use alcohol to wipe mine down. I am the only one using it, however. Good luck!

I have not noticed any damage from dropping the stylus, however, as I'm sure you're aware, that's probably not a good habbit to form. As far as cleaning, there are multiple products available that I'm sure would work great, but I personally use a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. It's definitely worth doing your own research, and it's totally understandable if you want to stay away from a semi-DIY approach, but after cleaning my stylus hundreds of times I can say that I'm happy with the results. If the record itself is clean you should be able to notice an audible difference. Hope this helps.

I have pulled this off after a day or two and it didn't leave anything...but it did when I pulled it off a couple months later. It is supposed to be permanent and I was after a couple of months as I had to work it get it all off and thankfully I was covering it up again so for me it didn't really matter. I had it on a vinyl binder. Hope that helps.

I have used this type of mirror for over twenty years, and currently have four of them in use (homes in different parts of the country). You could pull the mirror off of the helmet mount by pulling the ball out of the socket. You run the risk of breaking that socket/ball or greatly reducing the tension of the socket/ball coupling which would possibly resulting in the mirror flopping/moving during use. I HAVE NOT tried to remove and reattach any of the mirrors I have owned.

It records for 7 seconds, even when you want to record a shorter message. That's plenty long enough for this type of device. It's easy to change the message, too. Mine is quite durable--I've had it for 2 years, even dropped it on the cement, and it's still working fine.

Chad: I can't remember exactly but I think about 15-30 minutes each or maybe more. It takes time to change pads and mask off and stop and check, etc. I usually said to myself - that's not enough, and re-did that lite again with same grit. You have to be vary careful not to run off on your paint or chrome. I used water and wet sanded every step. I would never try it dry only! I even went to PepBoys or Autozone or somewhere and bought a 2000 grit paper and made up my own extra fine pad. That grit that was not included in the 3-M packet. I did my Dodge Pickup lites in the fall 2012 they still look good. Chad: I can't remember exactly but I think about 15-30 minutes each or maybe more.

You will have to start the recording first mount your phone then put your helmet on your head either that or buy the chest mount I have both and prefer the chest mount over it being I too of my helmet I have already broken a helmet mount from crashing if it's on your chest less of a chance for it to break

Mine does not, in either car mode or sport mode. It doesn't record over old footage. In a video review by www.techmoan.com, I believe he said his did. I just live with it. Don't use it for much other than the motorcycle.
