The Fine Art Of Organizing Little Pieces Of Plastic...

[ride512]

Is it me or is owning a GoPro/GoPros ( and I'm assuming other actions cameras. ) involve organizing way more little pieces of plastic than you ever thought you'd own? And cables...

I own 3 GoPro Hero 3+ Black cameras and when I bought the first two I was working on the Web Dev team of an online retailer that sold GoPro. I got everything at 40% off so I bought everything I thought I'd need not realizing what stuff the GoPro comes with. So I have a lot of GoPro "stuff"...

I dumped out a bag of "stuff":

and organized it:

This is just the stuff that's not in use or kept on my scooter as a spare for emergencies. I also have two suction cup mounts and another box in my closet that has all the extra backdoors and remotes.

Also this is what my charging setup looks like:

Pictured: Sena SMH-10, Sena Backpack, 2 x GoPro Battery Backpacks, & 4 x GoPro Batteries
The charger is a Anker 6 port 60 watt charger. Eventually I am going to mount the charger under my desk and just have the cables wrap up to the desk. The cables are just cheap 1 foot USB cables I got on Amazon.

Anyway I know this a lame thing to complain about, but I was just going through everything and feeling a bit overwhelmed so I figured I'd share....

Nah not just you, it's a thing that happens to motovloggers. When I go on tour I have a seat bag and panniers for my luggage and have to bring an entire extra back pack for all these pieces of plastic

how do you like the metal thumb screws?

They are nice, but they can get a bit hot in the sun. I've pretty much move all my set ups to use Metric M5 x 0.8 20mm Socket Head Cap Screws on joints that I don't need to adjust regularly. No handles sticking out of everywhere and you can tight them down really will with an Allen wrench.

I got the idea from Motonosity's helmet set up video.
