Hey I am actually quite proud of myself! A lot of firsts for me here, including soldering LOL. I'm trying like heck to not violate the helmet structure in any way, and so far so good. I've managed to attached both my chin strap and the fans to the lens material and it's working out great so far. The fans are actually velcro'd on the four corners and they are so light they hold just fine, plus the velcro allows decent air flow to the fans. battery clips are attached with industrial velcro too, as is the on-off switch. And thank God my hair doesn't get caught in the fans and they keep me nice and chilly =) (well, as chilly as possible).

The next challenge will be the romfx which is coming soon, but that will be fun. If anyone has any experience or tips on installing the romfx board and using it, I'd love to hear them!
