Great feature for daily commuting and to use for insurance claims. Bluetooth Remote compatible The Ghost XL is compatible with our bluetooth remote control (sold separately). This is a great accessory so that you can start and stop recording by attaching the remote to your wrist or handle bar mount.

Review: Great MC helmet cam - After researching a number of helmet mounted action cameras I decided on the Drift Ghost XL Snow Edition. The features I wanted were high video quality, ease of use, helmet mounting and other mounting options and long battery life (which is what the GoPro sorely lacks). The phone app is simple to use, though it could use some tweaking, being able to lock in the which camera variant instead of having to choose each time the app is opened and blue tooth instead of wifi - which doesn't stay connected. That's the biggest drawback and maybe there is some trick I haven't figured out yet. But being able to access all the menus for the camera and settings using the phone is much more convenient that trying to use the 1/4 of a postage stamp size screen. The camera itself is solid and well built. The adhesive holding the base to the helmet is very strong (I still rigged up a tether because I'd rather not lose the camera should the adhesive fail). I shot about 90 minutes of video and the battery indicator only went down one bar. I am hopeful that the 8 hour battery life is true. I set the video to the highest capture settings and even then I only used just over 9 GB of a 32GB card. I imagine a 128GB card would capture an entire days worth of riding without using the overwrite/loop recording feature. The video itself turned out very well, clear and sharp, the color is good and the field of view (which is adjustable in the settings) is excellent for capturing the rider's POV. Some of the reviewers complained of low video quality or blurred images - perhaps they didn't remove the clear plastic film that covers the lens prior to use. So far I am very happy with the Ghost XL and I look forward to testing it further during some longer rides.
Review: Surprisingly Great! - I ride a Tribike for Ironman training workouts 50-100mi/wk. My usual routes in SouthOC CA have me sharing public highways 50% of the time. Every single one of our crew, including me, has had unfortunate interactions with motor vehicles over the years. We ride as safe and alert as possible, but that isn't enough sometimes. All of my motor vehicles have simple dash/rear cameras that work great, so after the most recent local bicycle death by automobile, I decided to mount one of these. It works so well, I bought another and mounted it on the rear. With the simple mounting hardware I used, each camera w/mount only weighs 5.2 ounces! Ultra sturdy, somewhat inexpensive, tiny, aerodynamic and easy to quickly operate, I'm blown away with the results after a few hundred miles. The cameras are capable of A LOT more than my simple application, but the battery life, video quality, lightweight and ease of use are perfect for me!

### ⭐ AUDIO ISSUES & Non-responsive/ slow Customer Service
*by R***K on June 15, 2022*

I purchased the GHOSTXL on May 14, 2022. Since day one the audio recording was not right. When I could not find a solution after several days I reached out to Drift via Amazon. They fairly quickly seemed to get confused and forwarded me to Drift directly for “better support”. The camera never recorded audio correctly via the external microphone. Using the same microphone and required Drift adapter resulted in two very different experiences. If manually starting the recording (power on the unit with a long press then press a second time to start recording) the audio was great. If you turn on the one button recording feature (quick press the on button and the recording instantly starts) the audio is very distorted. Several email and video exchanges with Drift resulted in going thru hoops to try and get the issue across to them. In the end, they wanted me to try a Drift Microphone (and make another sale of their own branded products) but I failed to see the logic in their request. They were either truly not getting it, stalling and hoping I would go away. At one point I was asked (and I complied) to roll back the firmware on my camera. They also seemed to get confused a few times during out emails. PROS • Great Battery Life • Very good Image quality • Versatile mounting options • Very good build quality CONS • Proprietary external microphone jack cable • External microphone sound quality issues in auto (one button) record • Little to no customer support I returned the camera 6/13/22; one day before the return deadline with Amazon Prime. THANK YOU AMAZON for your support in making this right. Although I can’t be 100% sure, I feel DRIFT would have dragged their feet well beyond any return window and I have no confidence they would have provided a resolution as they were quick to offer groundless suggestions, almost as it they were not reading my emails or did not understand the issue. I am showing the emails below for those why may be curious as to what they may expect when reaching out to Drift for support. I loved my GHOSTX (older camera) and wanted to love this one, but the customer service experience was a total let down. The product is great a when it works, but the support behind I felt was lacking. I have attached a short video of the audio issue. I sent these same videos to DRIFTC support. In the end, I do not want to be stuck with a camera that does not work as promised and with no resolution in sight. Should DRIFTC reach out to me I will gladly update my review and rating but only if they step up and do what's right. I am not the only person with this issue. A quick search for this model and "audio issues" will easily show what others have been dealing with. My situation is not unique. If they reach out via email to me and can provide me a logical reason how the microphone can cause this then I will update this as well. Such a shame, I liked the camera otherwise I love my older DRIFTX and had high hopes for this camera. Maybe they will correct this issue in a future release. CHEERS, SEQUENCE OF EMAILS LOOKING FOR SUPPORT 5/20/22 Send To: Drift Innovation Ltd 05/20 19:16:04 Hello, I just purchased a new GHOST XL (Serial AT1350 with Firmware v2034). The microphone distorts badly when using the instant record feature. When I manually turn on the unit and manually start recording, the distortion does not exist. Can DriftC help me address this issue so I can use the feature? Thank you, From: Drift Innovation Ltd 05/20 19:58:43 Have you checked to see if this is the latest version of firmware from our Drift website? If it is, please contact our support team via the Drift Innovation website so they can support. Cheers Drift Amazon Team 5/21/22 Send To: Drift Innovation Ltd 05/21 14:33:17 Per my original email my firmware is v2034. The website shows Version v2029 (30/04/2021). I assume the one I have is newer, I am not sure why that would be the case but it seems that way. Is the Version v2029 newer than my v2034? Thank you, From: Drift Innovation Ltd 05/21 15:02:05 Unfortunately we cannot see the links to urls shared in this chat as amazon block it. However, the version on our website is the latest so we recommend you download that via the Drift Life app or your computer 5/22/22 Send To: Drift Innovation Ltd 05/22 14:29:04 I sent no URL, so I'm not sure why the link is removed, there was no link. The DRIFTC website has v2029. My XL says it has v2034. You want me to installv2029 over V2034 - Correct? From: Drift Innovation Ltd 05/22 15:37:55 We do not have the XL Pro firmware online as you have the latest version, you are looking at the XL model. Please contact our support team via our website so they can support your issue. Please use XXXXXX as your name when contacting so I can get them to escalate. We cannot do it here as Amazon don’t allow us to share contact details 5/21/22 (First Email to Drift via web contact – not thru Amazon) 21 May 2022, 22:44 BST Hello, I am having issues with my new GHOST XL camera. I have tried to resolve the issue with DRIFT via Amazon messaging. I have a microphone issue with this unit that persists. The issue presents when I use the instant on/ one touch record feature. The audio is very distorted. If I start the camera then manually start recording, the issue is not present. This occurs regardless of what mic I use. The fact I am using the same mic and mic adapter (supplied with the unit) tells me this must be a firmware, setting or some other camera issue. I have also tried adjusting the mic sensitivity down to 1 with the same results. Can you assist and let me know if there is a resolution for this known issue and if the v2034 firmware my camera came with is newer than the v2029 that is currently listed on the website. I fear all I will get from Amazon chat is canned responses and they already suggested I contact you. Thank you for your assistance, Thank you for contacting Drift. Your ticket number is (46825) Your request has been received and is currently being reviewed by our team. We will get back in touch as soon as possible. In the meantime you can have a look at our support page to help you out with your request: (removed link) You can add any additional comments by replying to this email.

However, I can see that you have mentioned experiencing problems with your sound, so if you could send me a clip evidencing this and if you could also confirm the brand of microphone you are using here, I'll see what I can do to help, Let me know how you get on here XXX and I look forward to your reply, Kind regards, Tech Support Drift Innovation Web driftinnovation.com 5/26/22 26 May 2022, 02:39 BST Hello, FILE 1 - MANUAL RECORDING The manual recording file is attached. I will need to send this in two separate emails as Yahoo has a 25MB size limit. The mic being used is a lavalier microphone. I have used this same mic with my older GHOSTC X device with no issues. It works great with the New GHOSTC XL with manual recordings as can be heard in the MP4 file attached. Below is the link to the exact model I purchased thru Amazon. Regards, Hello, FILE 2 - AUTO RECORDING The auto recording file is attached. This is the second file showing the microphone issue I am having. .. As stated in my previous email, the mic being used is a lavalier microphone. I have used this same mic with my older GHOSTC X device with no issues. It works great with the New GHOSTC XL with manual recordings as can be heard in the MP4 file attached. Below is the link to the exact model I purchased thru Amazon. (Link removed) Both files are recorded on the same settings, same microphone. Thank you for your prompt support in this matter. Regards, Tech Support (Drift Innovation) 26 May 2022, 13:49 BST Hi Ray, Thanks for your reply here, I'll get these clips checked over with my team today and we will get back to you shortly with further updates, Kind regards, Tech Support Drift Innovation Web driftinnovation.com 5/30/22 30 May 2022, 15:56 BST Any update on my issue? Regards, 6/03/22 3 Jun 2022, 21:33 BST Hello, Can I please get an update on my case. My last inquiry from DRIFTC was 5/26/22. Best Regards, 6/08/22 8 Jun 2022, 12:49 BST Good morning, Please advise on next steps regarding my case. I opened a ticket May 21, 2022, approx 19 days ago. My last correspondence from DRIFTC was May 26, 2022, approximately 14 days ago. (as of todays date 6/08/2022) I am happy to try a different update (if you recall I was asked to and successfully downgraded my firmware from v2034 to v2029. Please advise ASAP as the camera is not functioning as intended and is not usable as is in my situation. Regards DRIFT RESPONDED AFTER I RETURNED THE UNIT: 6/14/22 Tech Support (Drift Innovation) 14 Jun 2022, 16:22 BST Hi Ray, Thanks for your patience here and I do apologise for the delays at this very busy time, Having analysed your clips with our team, we can see that you are experiencing some kind of interference with the audio in your recordings, However I do note that you mentioned using a third-party mic accessory, and although I appreciate that you havent had any issues with this particular mic previously - as our cameras are nor designed to be compatible with third-party manufactured accessories (unless stated otherwise - see Universal Mount Adapter etc.) and so if you could try using a Drift External Mic accessory (linked below) we can hopefully try and work out why this is happening and get you some answers going forward, Let me know how you get on here Ray and I look forward to your reply, Kind regards, Tech Support Drift Innovation Web driftinnovation.com 6/14/22 14 Jun 2022, Hello, Can you please explain this logic in buying a DRIFT microphone for further testing? I sent two clips clearly showing the audio distortion. In both clips I am using the same external microphone with the same adapter that came with the camera. The only difference is the way I start up the recording. There are no issues whatsoever with manually starting the recording with the 3rd party microphone, but there are issues when I use the one button automatic recording feature. Kindly explain what the microphone has to do with this when the only aspect that changes is the way I start the recording. As an Engineer, this may point to a sign that the firmware or camera circuitry is looking at some other aspect differently for the microphone when starting in different modes. This was also a reason why I questioned being asked to downgrade my firmware as instructed by support. Newer firmware typically resolves these types of issues. Regards,
