About this project
It's simple. We engineered an action camera that puts professional quality results within everyone's reach. Here's a confession--we don't plan to fight any great white sharks or skydive into a volcano any time soon. We're normal people...who are tired of having to choose between super expensive and poor quality when it comes to action cameras. And we think you are too. So we created a GoPro level action camera at an affordable price.
We want to take the VOLT X Action Camera to as many people as would like it -- but going into major retail distribution is expensive. That's why the big brands can do it, but the small brands can't. So, here we are at Kickstarter--where all that goes out the window. We need your support to take the VOLT X camera to markets around the world. Since this is the first time the VOLT X is available to the public, we’re skipping the middle man and bringing it to you for way less than retail.

VOLT X has higher technical specifications than any of it's competitors. Our mission is to provide extremely high quality cameras at an affordable price. Well, most cameras out there in our class cost 3 or 4 times as much. I mean, how else are they going to pay for their corporate heads, their global retreats, or their marketing? We decided to take our money (what little we have) and put every last cent into the guts of the camera.
Capturing 4K Ultra High Definition video, smooth slow motion at up to 240 frames per second, and 16 MP HD photos, VOLT X delivers higher performance than any other action camera on the market.
Underwater Sample Footage
Filming underwater is one of the main reasons that people buy action cameras. The VOLT X has a built in High Def CMOS Sensor with Low Light Resolution that increases underwater clarity especially when the sun is not shining.

Risks and challenges
Here’s the really nice thing about VOLT: It’s not just a dream--it’s a reality. We have already designed and prototyped the camera and our manufactures are on standby. Our supply chain is 100% ready to go, from vital components that make VOLT work, to the very boxes that VOLT is packaged in. We've already invested the time, money, and effort to get this action camera up and ready.
One thing we have to keep our focus on is delivery: We'll have the cameras and we hopefully have you involved. Once the campaign is over, we'll just have to be sure the cameras get into your hands with no bumps in the road. I mean, we could have the problem of too many orders, but that's a problem we're willing to spend time and money to solve :)
We are using our quality shipping fulfillment partner that we've used a ton in the past. We trust our business with them and have confidence they will meet expectations.
While some Kickstarter projects have only a concept, a prototype, and some idea of a delivery path and timeframe, VOLT has had its plan ready to go for months.
We just need you to make VOLT a reality!
