We got good results, then we unwisely tried to fit the JXD into the underseat storage of a CBR600RR and it got squished or boiled

Or at least, that seems to be what happened, after that short run it snow crashed. But I did get some good results while it lasted.
The wee Aiptek is much more compact, and tougher to boot, but I've not tried it yet with the dogcam. It's a terrible camera in its own right, but that doesn't really matter much.
