could this be mounted to just your head or a regular hat or does it have to be a helmet?

Yes, the helmet mount is attached to an adjustable Velcro strap which can be worn without a helmet.

You could wear it over a bicycle helmet but it may slide so that it would not sit evenly on the helmet and netting maypress up against your face, since the brim of a hat keeps netting suspended over head and face.

Sure. If you live in a state with no helmet law you can any kind of stupid hat you want while you ride. If your state has helmet laws your hat stack will neither protect you nor meet the laughable DOT standards. Seriously, no one should buy this thing unless it is as a joke. It is terrible.

Yes. This mount works well without a helmet. I have worn it while working on a railroad car and it worked well over a period of about an hour. Sony's instructions for assembly are not real clear so be prepared to fiddle around with it a bit.

It can. The other option is the boom that attaches to the helmet. Both work great. It is just a matter of your preference.

Haven't tried it, but it's not likely. It covers your whole forehead, and wraps around clear back to your ears. It would conflict with the helmet across the whole front half of your head.

I believe it does. How I do it is the head mount that comes with it. but I believe it can be mounted on a helmet

Honestly, I have an L bracket washer setup on my helmet. The helmet mount provided is an adhesive/strap combo, but it stands up off the top of your head like an tellatubby. It looks pretty ridiculous. I have mine mounted to the side of my head with an L shaped piece of metal and a few washers and long screws.

Do i have to have a helmet made for a headset? Like the helmets with the cutouts for it? Or will it work with any helmet?

It comes with a head strap, but it wouldn't fit over my bike helmet. It's meant for wearing it directly on your head. Here is a link for the a helmet mount MagicShine Helmet Mount Kit

The mic and speakers are made to mount on a helmet. I don't think you would want to Velcro the speakers and mic to your head. If you could find a mic/ headset like phone operators use it might work. The problem is the plug is different. I tried to find one and could not. But the unit works great. I hate helmets but maybe you might want to use one for the convenience and the safety.

It can be attached to the side of a ballistic helmet however if it's on a picatany rail you'll need to buy a separate attachment piece. The helmet attachment mount is not picatany compatible.

At first I mounted it to my handle bars. I made a bracket and now have it mounted to my fork. I think that it is too heavy to mount on a helmet. It does come with some extra straps but I did not use them. It is a very bright light. I always run it on low intensity.

I bought this as a gift for my son for his birthday.....he said if he attached a strap to it he could wear it on his head. Hope that helps.

No, it does not mount to the top of any helmet, but if it works for you give it a try. It's for the handle bar if it can fit, some handle bars are really thin, it stretches, so it can fit on a bigger size handle bar. You can put it on the saddle post, that's were I had mine, but remember to turn it off, because the battery does not last very long, you can by a replacement I'm assuming.

The main unit that attaches to the helmet can be attached using a clamping device with screws or as a 2nd option you can glue it to the side of the helmet. Everything needed for both of these applications came in the box.
