Once the side pieces are clipped onto your goggles, has anyone had issues with it bouncing around? how well does the conductor pad stay on cheekbones?

No issues. I push the clips well on the band so as to give the upper part leverage/purchase. I have them just forward of the ear holes. I bought better goggles. The side pieces caused my speedo goggles to leak. The net said Aquasphere Kayenne are best and they are in fact good. No leaks minimum pressure. You need earplugs. I use EAR express pods. These are sound PPE infact (factories, building sites etc), but just happen to work very well and comfortably as water plugs. They are about $1 each reusable/washable.

I've not had of the issues that you mentioned Rock...the pads stay secure and the sound quality is good. I will say that I've had "in-ear" buds and they seem to have a bit better sound quality, but the hassle of keeping them in my ears was just not worth it. I really like my Neptune & do recommend that you go for it!

I've not had a problem with the transducers. The clips are generous. I clip to a mask for my laps and have never had them come loose. The sound when underwater is very good.

Hi, I haven't had any issues with mine and I have used mine a fair bit. The conductors stay on your cheekbones because the clips have ridges in them to hold them in place once on the goggles. I hope this helps. Regards, Amanda

It is pretty bouncy when mounted on the chest. For the best view always attach the GoPro to your helmet or head since your head is constantly stable.

Great question! This item has three pieces of velcro, which when adhered to the inside of the goggles will stay put and fit nicely.

The 3mm mount has a little curve in it, however I would by an spare just in case you don't position it correctly the 1st time like I did on my helmet. Once you move it, it no longer sticks to well. Good side mount tho!!

Hmm. In my case I needed the width as well as the elevation so it was not an issue. Just left one of the best High Power training classes in the US and they are not concerned with head tilt. Additionally, the pads can be cut. So the cheek side could be left off and just do the non-cheek side and top for pad stability. It would take some experimentation, but doable in my humble opinion. Wishing you all X's.

Hello my screen plate stays on no problem but the bottom plate every once in awhile falls off but only when I drag the bottom of my hand and popsit down but other than that I have no problem.

The band rests on/under your collar and the wires for the earbuds are thin as well as long enough to reach my ears with ease under my own helmet. This said, when you put them on, pull the little clips from the band--easily removed and replaced--so you'll retain a full range of motion. This isn't necessary otherwise, but helps when wearing a helmet because otherwise it adds tension.In the interest of full disclosure, I wear a 2XL Scorpion EXO-1100. This headset also works well with my older GMax helmet, though I don't know the model off the top of my head. Both are modular helmets, though it should work just as well with a fixed full-face as my modular.

It has not happened for me. It screws into place, it is not just plugged in. I use a Blackrapid harness, and the eyepiece has gotten snagged on my phone holster, camera case, clothing etc. and it has not fallen off. That being said, excessive force in that direction would likely be detrimental to the eyepiece, but again, mine has been snagged multiple times, and I have had no issues whatsoever.

yes contour sells a goggle mount that you can slip on your goggle's strap, they sell them for 14.99 but you may find one on here for a little cheaper.

Guido Kimble is absolutely correct and used an excellent example. This woodworking face shield uses the same type of head strap suspension and shield flip-up feature as a welding helmet. You would have no practical way of keeping it on your head while jumping, running, etc.

It comes with an adhesive pad that is intended to stay on the helmet to hold the mounting clip on. I actually bought two units so I was able to change them out. I'm pretty sure it came with extra pads, too. You may be able to remove the pad but you'd have to be careful cleaning any leftover adhesive and of course would have to use a new pad next time. Any good similar pad would work. Side note - I eventually bought SENA units and no comparison. Work as intercom and much better quality.

I think the answer would be yes, but I wonder if your head bounce from the ride would be almost too much for decent viewing comfort. I have adapted several of the various mounts supplied by GoPro for that camera to handle bars, flat surfaces, hats, etc. I think you may be better off to purchase one of the accessory kits from GoPro and make an adaption from that using glue or screws ... I know, I know, nobody wants to do that to their helmet and this strap thing just may be the trick. What the heck, it's pretty cheap, give it a try!

Hi, I have this helmet and i love it. I've never felt the visor obstruct my view. I don't see how it could if you are looking forward. It doesn't fall on your face.

Can't feel it AT all. It is very smooth flat Velcro. And it really sticks, not cheap. I had to pull hard to get it apart to make smaller fit. Once on it pretty much stays put. I have never noticed the Velcro or anything on the back of my head. You do have to adjust to your proper head size or it will slide during sleep. Hope it works for you.

I've been attaching it to a plexiglass windows of various small airplane cockpits, and it has yet to fall off, even with all the turbulence and a little bumping into it that happens. If I was to add a small drop of water to it before suctioning, the the mount would even hold with more force, but that's overkill for what I'm doing. What you could do is just tighten the arm enough so the tablet stays in place, but still loose enough that if it's nocked into it gives just a little.

I've never had that problem with it, but you could try wiping it down with alcohol wipes before working out. That sometimes helps with goggles, etc.

There is some truth to this problem. The light mounts with a plastic strap that is tightened with a lever (think of a ski boot buckle). The problem is that the lever doesn't really stay tightened, and you have to push it back into place. However, I haven't noticed this loosening going over bumps, etc., it's just that at the end of a ride, you tighten the strap again. A minor design defect and not a big deal. I like the light.
