funny, i was looking at it on amazon and there it costs 230 euros which is roughly 250 freedom dollars. thank god i decided to look it up for reviews first
Im honestly on the fence between this and the SRU helmet. My loadout is CQB and kit is meant to have the vibes of a SWAT/Vigilante. Idk which one would you recommend for that appearance? Because from what I’m seeing, this helmet and the SRU are functionally identical
@@jondbaptist3694 in the end I decided against it. I’ve seen many reviews and even my local airsoft store that didn’t recommend this because of either poor quality or because of how heavy it was. They even had one for decoration they let me try on, and it was like wearing weights on your head. It would definitely get uncomfortable after a while of running
Hey, i was looking for a review like that. Thanks for that. Explained evrything i wanted to know. But it would be realy nice if you dont cover the mic on one side and still put music on
@@jondbaptist3694 Yeah I did, I got their newest version the P3. I like the P1, but it puts a lot of strain on your neck because of how heavy it is. The P2 and P3 are lighter, however it doesn't come with a helmet. You'll have to buy that separately. There are promo codes you could use to reduce the purchasing price. Just an FYI, if you are considering purchasing the SRU, you'll need to buy one of those battery bricks for USB cables and fasten it somewhere on your person. There are USB cables in the helmet that are used for powering the fans. A massive downside though is that you can't ADS with the helmet on. You'll need to get a sight riser (30mm) in order to actually try to. All in all, the SRU helmet series is pretty badass, and you can buy separate-colored visors to fit your theme/style. P1-My first helmet, really solid/badass design, but very bulky and heavy. It does come with a helmet, so that's a plus. P2-More slender-shaped and resembles a skull-design. Looks cooler, but it's basically just a facemask that you attach to a helmet. P3-My most recent one, gives me an ODST feeling. The lens covers the entire face, so waaaay more visibility. Sometimes my breath clouds the lens, so it's important to always have the fans running. It's also like a facemask, but the design reaches a little around the helmet as well. I tend to ramble a lot, but if you have any further questions just let me know!
@@user-yd8lg5ph4w thanks for the quick, detailed response. The usb connection is the only thing i haven't seen anyone do in a review video of this helmet. Was just curious how complicated that was when playing? The only reason I'm interested in the helmet in this video is because the 3-AA batteries looks simpler to deal with
@@jondbaptist3694 So for the USB cables on the SRU helmet, they are super, super long. There are two, and you can adjust them to whatever length you want if you know how to make cables shorter by tying them into a loop. Don't tie them too tightly otherwise it can restrict head movement because the wires will pull your head when turning if it's too tight. On the P1 helmet, the wires protrude from the back while on the P3 helmet, the wires protrude from the sides. Although the batteries in this helmet do seem more convenient because no wires are involved, keep in mind that they may die while playing (batteries don't last long after all). If you don't want the wires to run down your vest, you could always get a battery brick strap for your helmet, that way it rests on top, and you wouldn't have to worry about the wire problem (it only works for the P2-P3 models though). I like using a battery brick too because they last forever. I charged mine last year, and right now it's at 65% charge. If you don't like the fans and wires, you could always detach them (the wires are attached to the fans, which are attach to the side-rails of the helmet). Hope this helps
@@jondbaptist3694 I know some people with the SRU p2-p3 helmets that use a battery strap which wraps around the helmet, that way the usb cables are easier to mess with because they stay on the helmet instead of dangling down. Others that I know just loop the wires through their vests so then they don't just dangle there. TL;DR They aren't really a problem if you mess with them a bit.
yo so i have this helmet in black multicam its bad ass but i have an issue maby you can help me with...im having a problem with the comms. i got a 7.1 u94 style ptt that routs to baofang or kenwood connection. I hooked everything up and the walkies react but there is no sound what so ever in the helmet and i cant communicate out either. my buddy just got one as well that just came in today and the same thing happens soim figuring its the ptt? so i guess my question is what ptt are you using to make it work?
I've been using this one just fine, connecting to the helmet with the cable that comes with the helmet, to the ptt, to my baofang.

@@epicablaze I found out what it was i had the mil u94 and not the civilian version.. made the switch and it works just fine. Got alot of time in with mine and i love it even now that its 100 degrees here in florida some days the fans work like a charm fr.
@@naptamisprime just bought one new half price so over moon-or will be when i sus out the internal speakers etc lol,amazingly liittle via google saying exactly wot need...mic presumably plugs into side with one hole on.but if thats true am very confused what side with 2 holes on needs,as only noticably smaller than 3.5mm and the other one is even smaller so am very confused,darent even consider buying a ptt cable let alone a radio till i know lol
@FFAx the one on the right side of the helmet is for the mic and has a small screw space next to it to secure it. The hole on your left is your 3.5 to 7.1 nato just be sure to use a civilian version ptt..the u94 is a common and cheap one as well as a good one to use. We are gearing up for an event in Dec so I may use a dual ptt to communicate with another squad I know of now that I know how this thing works but so far so good on my end once i got it figured out
was looking at this helmet, glad i saw this review however would you say that you can use sniper scopes still or not? (its my main concern as i use a lot of scoped weapons so any insight would be great)
I have an svd with a 9x scope, and I cannot ads so I use my pilot mask instead (www.evike.com/products/15560/). Now that said, I do not have a riser so it may work if you do. The thing is, to ADS you need free access from your cheeks, and the front face section prevents that (without a riser). However if you take off the front face section, put in a mesh mask and a pair of small goggles/glasses, you can ADS.
It all depends on what you are going for. This is honestly a great showpiece, but its also practical which is a bonus. It does work great though if you just remove the front section, and use it as a normal bump helmet with the added benefit of fans and a headset.
I bought it just for trying that at Airsoft Fields and I gotta tell that this helmet is something else. It's not such a crap as it looked because of this plastic elements.
I purchased it from this Ali Express page when it was at 5 stars. It seems recently there have been some mixed reviews so take that as you will. Personally, this seller was very helpful, responded to all my questions and I had no problems with the product or shipping at all. a.aliexpress.com/_mM5v290
What worries me is that if the fans arnt covered they might be ruined by the paint. Also this mask is not waterproof, so you could not wash any paint off
Im here because an Evike review 🖐🏻
Same here.
same.
Same
Same here
Same
Bro it dont matter how the quality is I subscribed because you helped me...I love you man❤
I am a SAW gunner and i go by the motto who needs to aim when your winning hy volume
Same thought I had as I pulled the trigger on this 😂
I've wore mine in many games and has held up super good I absolutely love this helm
do you paly paintball with the mask or airsoft. thank you
Just checked this out on evike and saw a review with a link to here so happy I clicked on it happy to know my money is well spent
Hi I have a question!!
Can the headphones connect to any audio source? That is, if I want to listen to music through the plug in, does it work?
funny, i was looking at it on amazon and there it costs 230 euros which is roughly 250 freedom dollars. thank god i decided to look it up for reviews first
yeah it costs around 200 freedom units on evike depending on which you get as well lol
Im honestly on the fence between this and the SRU helmet. My loadout is CQB and kit is meant to have the vibes of a SWAT/Vigilante. Idk which one would you recommend for that appearance? Because from what I’m seeing, this helmet and the SRU are functionally identical
Did you purchase either of them?

Yeah I was just recording from my phone 😂
Planning to buy one for my shotgun build.
Honestly that's perfect for this build. Anything simple and without a scope works amazingly
I like the helmet, don't get me wrong but i'd prefer the SRU SR Tactical Helmet. It's affordable and extremely durable.
Did you get the SRU?
@@jondbaptist3694 Yeah I did, I got their newest version the P3. I like the P1, but it puts a lot of strain on your neck because of how heavy it is.

I will receive my helmet in a couple days then I will try and make a video.
Did you make a video?
your well spoken you should do some more reviews or some gameplay
where can i get a radio and adapter compatible with this helmet? Please reply soon.
I suggest going to radio shack for adapter because it is nato something and needs an adapter
Does the headset have ear pro for sound built in (for pyros etc.), or is it just comms?
I believe just comms...that I'm having trouble getting going lol
Music in the background? Really?
Lol

Na they have it tho I got black multicam that and regular multicam cost more

Looks cool but still it's better when you buy classic helmet

Do a full kit/outfit reveal with this helmet.
I'm going out to a huge 3 day event soon and I'll compile the footage and post it along with that

will persciption glasses work under this?
For the most part yes, it all depends on the frame of your glasses and the size of your head.
Wonder if this would work for paintball
What worries me is that if the fans arnt covered they might be ruined by the paint. Also this mask is not waterproof, so you could not wash any paint off
Is this for paintball as well ?
No
link plz
Can i use this for paintball?
No
Is it hard to see
Honestly yeah, stormtroopers mode activated
can we wear glasses inside ?
Yes, but they will probably fog up unless you add defog spray. The fans only defog the main lense.
