IDOGEAR Helmet Battery Pouch MK2 Counterweight Pouch 500D Nylon Helmet Battery Bag for Airsoft Hunting Outdoor Sports

I would generally recommend this. I was a little skeptical about this considering the low cost, but honestly it;s a solid piece of gear. I've been using it for about half a year now for search and rescue on my Team Wendy helmet (over top of the Team Wendy helmet cover). It has done well in the 110 degree summer weather. I'll update the review if anything goes wrong in the snow and cold weather this winter but I don't expect any issues. The rear pocket holds weight perfectly fine and I have a 10,000mAh usb battery pack in it when I have an Aurora NVG mounted to the front of the helmet. The velcro straps going over the pocket opening do a great job keeping the battery pack in place while the shock cord keeps the usb cable from flapping about loose on the top of the helmet. The lower velcro loops can be adjusted in size and can be made to hold a glowstick, and the entire exterior surface of this thing is covered in velcro loop so there's a ton of area to attach other miscellaneous items. One downside to this helmet battery pouch I have found is that the top doesn't extend up far enough to fully cover the top velcro of the helmet, and as a result it causes an uneven surface for any velcro attachments like a Helstar or Manta strobe that you might want mounted on top. It hasn't caused a problem and my strobe has stayed firmly attached despite this, but it's just something to be aware of. If you absolutely have to have a rock solid flat surface right on the very top of your helmet then this product probably won't work for you.Note: in the pictures, I painted the Team Wendy helmet cover and this helmet battery pouch bright orange for search and rescue purposes. Orange is not an available color so I had to improvise. Most parts of the battery pouch did not take the paint well and as you can see it's flaking off. This is probably a good thing for everyone else as I imagine the helmet battery pouch would be fairly resistant to staining and discoloration. I was using fluorescent orange spraypaint and might try rit dye next.

The quality of the fabric and stitching looks really good. Some Chinese made multicam fabrics look awful and cheap. However, the cordura this is made from looks very nice and the multicam pattern looks genuine. All in all it seems to be a nice value and looks great on my helmet build, which is an XL size ACH that I’ve converted to a high cut mod.

I’ve only had it a short time, I wish that the flap over what would be the counterweight/battery pouch were solid instead of straps, but it functions and is much more affordable for those of us larping on a budget. Stitching and fabric are solid, it’s fine for the light use I use it for. I wouldn’t trust it if your life depended on it but for hog hunting it is perfect.

Plan your head gear out well, so you don't have to mess with constantly. this helped allot, glad I got it.

This is a great product for the price. Added it to my HHV bumps helmet and works perfectly with my battery pack and my unity light markers. The multicam pattern is very crisp. Will definitely be buying another.

Works fine for what I need. Attached to a Lancer helmet and it works great for storing a counter weight. The bungee straps are nice to run a charging cable through. Haven't had it long but it appears to be a nice product and came with nice packaging.

I bought two of these (Multicam and Ranger Green). They're okay. For the price I guess you get your money's worth, but there were a number of disappointing things (especially the width of the battery compartment straps).So I initially thought "4 stars" in that you get a reasonably decent item for a very reasonable price. But then I found the "KRYDEX Tactical Helmet Pouch" (Amazon ASIN: B07WC7ZCRL). Roughly the same price (if not identical, depending on the color you pick), far better construction, and wider/nicer battery compartment straps.In other words, having bought two of each brand I wouldn't buy this Idogear one again. It's nice, but it's not nearly as nice as the Krydex edition. The latter is so much better as to push this item down one star.3 stars.

This is definitely an neck saver and great for extra battery storage. I can weight this thing up perfectly with spare batts for nv helmet. Lets me easy wear my mich helmet with pvS7 for hours with no aches.
