You guys who can run a ventilated full face or even the best Gore-Tex jackets when pedaling are lucky. Can't. Too much sweat, steam and ensuing fuss. Trail lid with cable to bum bag is sticking around, for me, due to weight and longer run time. No real loss since I need a bum bag for many winter rides for glass management, and to stash the windbreaker (my sweaty-ass version of your emotional support jacket).
Once I learned to use a simple rubber band to secure the cable to the bottom-rear of my helmet, then suddenly the cable wasn't annoying anymore. Certainly less annoying than the weight of an integrated light up top, which requires headache-inducing clamping force or my helmet slides down over my eyes at bad times. Your FF low mount would fix this, if it were an option for my physiology and how I ride.
