VholdR Wearable Camcorder (Black) Decide Now

This wearable camcorder delivered great video. It's easy to use and very simple. There's only one switch (stop/record) and one button (on/off/laser). The camcorder features two lasers which point at whatever it's recording - other than that, this is just a lens with a microchip and a flash memory card. I intended to record some sweet stunts while wearing this camcorder, however as soon as it makes impact, it stopped recording! The camcorder did not break, and is very hard to scratch (pavement does the trick!), however I lost all my sweet footage as soon as I hit the deck. The camcorder still works - it turns back on and works good as new after an impact. I even tried just dropping the camera from approx 3 ft and it still shuts off. So unfortunately, I can't post a video of this camera getting banged up, because as soon as the camcorder shuts off, I lose the video which was in the process of recording. All previously saved video clips are still there, though.

As a second demonstration, I tried dipping the camcorder in a bucket of water while recording. Again, the camcorder shut off when submerged. I could, again, turn the camcorder back on after pulling out of the water, but it refused to work under water.

This camcorder can survive impact and survive the elements, however cannot record in high-impact / wet environments. Perhaps I have a defect? Considering I got this as a Vine product, I have no interest in calling up the company to inquire about these issues. However, I would definitely be upset if I paid $200+ for this camcorder.
