Does a wire with a significant length (greater than 6 inches) hang from the helmet? Or is there a female connector?

There is a wire that is around 6 to 8 inches (maybe a little longer) that hangs from helmet. Exact length will depend on helmet. It also has an extension wire a couple of feet long. I run the extension wire from a wrist strap for my nano to the helmet wire. You can disconnect the helmet wire from the extension wire to remove the helmut. Works good. If you get it I recommend testing before installing in helmet. The first one I got had a bad connection to the extension wire and had to return it. Replacement one worked great.

Im at work and don't have the microphone here to check, I have it mounted on my helmet, underneath the visor, the plug is on the top and the extension runs down the back of my helmet, then rolls under and I have it tucked between the padding and the helmet shell to the other side where my Gopro is mounted on the left side. So with that, I think the cord is about 24 inches, it was longer than i needed, thats why it runs around my helmet like it does, trying to use up the extra. Hope this helped, a little :-)

The connection wires are about 6 or 7 inches long or so. I didn't measure but it's about that.

The light is attached by a long cord to a battery that needs to be mounted to your bike. If you attached to your helmet, you'd have a wire going down your back. I'd say no

If you're referring to the type which goes over the top of the helmet and has dual hooks, it will take some modification, needing to be shaved slight at the back edge of the latch side until fit. I assume it would be the same for the single hook mounts. From what I understand, the kind that mounts permanently to the front of the helmet is a precise fit for this.

Yes, a little plastic piece is included that allows you to shorten the length of the wire behind your head if u desire.

Hi there. I didn't have any problems hanging my pants on it. I don't recall how far the wire sticks out, but it wasn't that much trouble to hang them.

Like any type of retractable cord, it has a locking function. You listen for the click sounds and it will stay at that length. So YES, you can let it hang so it is within reach. Good heavy duty quality on this one so far.

Honestly, I have an L bracket washer setup on my helmet. The helmet mount provided is an adhesive/strap combo, but it stands up off the top of your head like an tellatubby. It looks pretty ridiculous. I have mine mounted to the side of my head with an L shaped piece of metal and a few washers and long screws.

Hi James, I couldn't keep mine attached to the helmet due to the glue not holding. I replaced it with a Cycle Aware Reflex, which is a similar system, but seems more secure and allows the mirror to be detached when the helmet goes into a gym bag or other place that might knock the mirror loose. I like the Reflex system well enough to have purchased two for two helmets.

No. There's a Velcro strap intended to wrap around the handle bars. The connectors fit tightly, and there's no problem with them loosening. Velcro the mike and ear pieces outside of the helmet lining, and remove when not being used... otherwise the length of the cord is a problem. Overall, my wife and I were EXTREMELY disappointed in the unit's performance and considered it a waste of money.

Well, i did it using zip ties. The bracket that it comes with will not do it. The zip ties did the work for me. Another friend used rubber bands. Just be creative...the light gives you a great range when mounted on the helmet. It works really good for me. Zip ties will take you 2 minutes. Good luck!

It's just over 2' in length. There is a small, unobtrusive cincher that's adjustable to loop some of the extra slack, if you like. I have a large head and I had the cable cinched with about an inch or so in a loop. It feels very comfortable.

The unit is only about 2" high so I would think you have room on the side to mount it where you can reach it easy enough. The speakers are about 1 1/2" in diameter which would fit inside the helmet. I have mine on 3 different modular helmet that I have the mounts on with extra speakers. That way all I have to do is move the unit to a different helmet. Hope this helps.

Helmet strap is sold separately. I bought a head strap separately (not for helmets) and it came with a longer cord to connect to the battery pack.

i have found that a hevier gage wire works best. i don't really know about length

Nope, There are two tabs on each side of bracket that you attach velcro that runs through the slots of your helmet. You will need to attach this to something you can wrap the velcro thru. Works good though on helmet!
