sorry I can't send the actual audio.. but, take my word for it, it came out very well.. now I will have to hone my skills, using it.. I know that I should post it on you tube, but I haven't been there in a while now.. I find myself sending short little videos thru messages to my friends with audio.. maybe I will use Peter to give his views of the audio.. I do text him ..

You hold that in your teeth huh? I would slobber all over it lol

Pretty ingenious though.

you can get used to it in your mouth.. still swallow to clear your throat.. biggest problem is, I slur a little when talking.. all of my friends are aware of the issue, so they understand.. between videos, I put the cam in my top jacket pocket.. otherwise my jaws will get tired after 10 miles or so..

Went through all 4 video clips with my ear phones inserted....

Lovely sound when idling, then accel in 1st, 2nd, 3rd and in beginning of the 4th gear and then too much of a wind noise...but no complaints when you see our Chuckk hitting a 100 mph number/in 6th... you are a bad boy Chuckk

Next clip.... a little walk... when he is releasing a high pressure fluid, no sound.... after his hot pursuit, no worries, I would do the same

Video #3 is really nice, curvy road and lovely, lower speed sound, leaving 4 in 2 pipes and a bike going in the opposite direction...zoom!!!

Final clip is from a pistachio farm and Chuckk talking about his equipment and back up battery.

Place'em all on you tube!!
Thanks for sharing, Chuckk

Does it respond when you say something like, "Hey Google?"

Do you start the video capture by voice activation, or touch?

Very ingenious indeed, Chuckk. I assume you have to stop to turn it on and off?

I keep my bite cam in one top pocket on my jacket.. the external battery in the other top pocket.. because of the external battery's capacity, I can leave the phone set to take videos.. I can then pull out the phone and take vids on the fly.. I must be careful when pulling it out of my pocket, not to touch the buttons.. this will take some practice.. I then can shut if off on the fly, but like to pull over to verify in my bikes mirror that I have stopped my video.. pretty much what I look at is in frame.. not exactly though, so more practice is needed.. it's a dirty job.. haha .. so the little 1/2 BB I glued to the phone's volume control will stop and start the videos or take stills..

grinding a flat spot on that little BB was a real trick.. I used a key chain.. then ground the flat spot, before cutting off the one little BB .. then gluing.. that is another saga.. I won't go into that !!

Sounds like you need a Bluetooth (BT) remote to activate/deactivate the video function, and/or snap pictures on-the-fly. You just register the BT device with your phone.

The remotes are very common (used with many "selfie sticks") and can mount anywhere (like your handlebar, wrist, etc.).

I never knew that !!.. I would have to carry it with me then, if I used the camera away from the bike.. like my kayak or like when I did the 5000 ft overlook vid.. who makes the one shown? ..
I ordered a 4 pack of them.. dirt cheap.. now I need to know if I can program all remotes to work on my one iPhone .. I then could mount the remotes in different locations, if I chose to.. it wouldn't change the way I video too much.. maybe selfies 10 feet away sometimes..

Cool Chuckk. Yeah, it should be simple, just follow the instructions for the remote device. It should be something along the lines of turning it on, discover the BT device, register it, and then, ... Bob's your uncle.

You should be able to register each one with one phone.
