Video Transcript
Hey guys, it's Todd from OTTE Gear.
I want to talk to you about our V2 Helmet Bag. It’s a clean, compact package made from durable 500D fabric. Inside, we use thick padding to protect your helmet and night vision from drops and impacts.
The inside includes a retention strap to secure your helmet. There's also a removable NODS box, which you can configure with two dividers for a pano or bino setup.
The bag features a removable divider, plus a MOLLE panel if you want to store your night vision underneath the helmet.
You’ll also find three internal pockets for storing cables, batteries, and small accessories—plus a loop panel for extra items.
It’s all available at ottegear.com.
