Luxebell Accessories Kit for AKASO EK5000 EK7000 4K WiFi Action Camera GoPro Hero 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5/Session 5/Hero 4/3+/3/2/1 Max Fusion SJ4000 SJ5000 (14-in-1)

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Had a lot of accessories for the price.

Loads of accessories in this box! Everything we used on our trip to Aruba seemed to work great.

Pros - Good quality, good value compared to GoPro, small size, additional accessories and batteries are very inexpensive and easy to obtain via that little camera store on 57th street...oops, I mean, Amazon.Cons - Set up was not intuitive, so many accessories but no explanation as to what they are all for, not "turn key" i.e. had to buy SD card, battery was not charged, etc., battery life is not that great, so I've already ordered two more, wireless video transfer take a LONG time - 1.4 gigs takes roughly 14 minutes.Verdict - for someone uncertain if they'll even use it, and afraid of the GoPro cost, THIS IS a VERY good alternative. Despite the cons I listed, I DO recommend this camera and am satisfied with my purchase. I look forward to using it more.I just started using this camera, and began doing my best to figure out the myriad of accessories. Then I found one that would stick to the top of my open face motorcycle helmet, and I went out for a ride.The first test was pretty cool. But I was dismayed that 9 minutes of video would take nearly a half hour to transmit to my phone - I suppose I could remove the SD card and move it over that way.Also - my first attempt to mount to my helmet made me realize I did not leave room for my visor - I could only raise it 2/3 of the way before it hit the mount. Luckily, Akaso provides additional adhesive pads to allow for mistakes like this. That was a nice surprise. I was able to rip off the old adhesive pads, reposition the camera mount on my helmet, and take another swing.Regardless, of any errors on my part, the stability of the video was good, the quality of the video was good. Colors were bright. Because this was on my helmet, the audio was rendered useless by the wind, but this is no fault of the camera. An external mic with one of those sponge wind suppressors would fix that.After one 9 minute video and a 27 minute wireless transfer, I had enough battery for 4 minutes of additional video. Not great. I immediately ordered two more batteries.Still - I really look forward to using this camera more and am thinking of more uses.I would give 5 stars if:1. Better battery life2. Faster file transfer3. A guide, digital or printed, that would illustrate what all the accessories are for

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Bought this as a gift-not all the items have been used as of this writing, but every pieced used has been great. This was purchases for a new user. Would recommend for quality at a good price.

Super kit

Why did you pick this product vs others?:This works great with my daughters Hero 3+.

The kit has a variety of useful pieces, but you have to be careful.1. The screws don't necessarily stay tight. I had the camera on my chest while zip lining. The screw was tight when I started, and I went down a few lines without a problem. I was literally stepping off the edge of a cliff when the guy next to me grabbed me because he saw that the screw had completely fallen out. Fortunately, it happened to drop in the perfect spot and get caught in the ropes so I didn't lose it. I was able to screw it back in before the camera fell into the chasm below. I spent the rest of the day tightening and retightening the screw every time I got a free hand.2. The suction cup was VERY strong, but the screw heads at each elbow are plastic. I attached the suction cup to the (clean) fender of an ATV and took off on a very bumpy ride - rocky & gravel roads at high speeds, dirt trails, water crossings, etc. (so bumpy that the video didn't turn out well anyway, but that's not related to this product!). The suction cup never budged even after four hours. However, the elbow joints kept jiggling loose, so I ended up with lots of video of the sky or fender. I kept stopping to re-point the camera and tighten the plastic nut. Finally I looked down and saw that the nut had cracked completely off. With no way to tighten the elbow joint, the whole thing became worthless.3. The float handle worked great. It's a perfect size to hold comfortably in your hand. It floats - no cracks or leaks. I recommend using the wrist strap too if you're in a current.4. The small bag that comes with the kit is... small. (It is bigger than it appears in the product picture, but..). You can fit the small pieces. The float handle does fit, as does the suction cup attachment. But not all at the same time. It's not big enough to store the whole kit by any means. When I went out for a day of various activities, I ended up with the small bag plus several loose pieces thrown into my backpack.5. The selfie stick hasn't gotten much use by me, but it does seem to be well made.Overall, I actually liked the kit. It has a variety of attachments that would be useful in different settings. I am disappointed in the screws coming loose, but I will continue to use it. The little plastic screw heads on the suction cup do not hold up to repeated tightening. It was my favorite accessory out of the kit, but I'm still happy with the kit in general.My biggest disappointment is with customer service. The kit claims to have a warranty. However, they provide NO information - here on Amazon, with the kit itself, or on the Luxebell website - about how to actually file a claim. The Luxebell website has a "support" page. After typing a request and hitting "submit" it just displays below for the world to see, but apparently no one at Luxebell reads it.

There are lots of items in this bundle. It is worth it for the wrist strap and backpack clip alone!
