DXZtoz Two Way Articulated Endoscope with 0.31" Articulated Snake Camera Video Inspection Telescope with Light for Automotive Aircraft Mechanics 15M

Recommended

Camera works really well, takes good pictures and I think even video. Camera manipulates easily, i'm sure it wouldn't take a lot of abuse but I'm very happy with this purchase.

I needed a way to look into some spots without tearing things apart and after some research, this unit came up as one of the best for the price. On sale for Prime Days, so in went the order. It actually arrived same day so that was nice. My last one was 20+' long, 5 feet seems like a better choice for the cable length and it had the usual accessories like a hook, magnet and 90 degree mirror. The unit is easy to use and worked great! The articulating head made it easy to have a look when it wasn't straight in front of me and I was able to get everything done quickly. Clear picture, good focus range and a nice clear screen made it worth the spend. There's only a couple of things I'd suggest: One, some indication of how off center (L/R) the camera is to make things easy to track and two a "centered-up" indication so I know if left really is left or am I upside down. Otherwise, great unit!

Very good borescope. Adjustable camera head makes a big difference. For the price it's a 5 stars from me.

I have had 2 scopes in the past but this one is clearly way way better . The first thing I checked was the view it had before actually inserting it an a small opening . I was happy to find that is has a picture much like a camera , that is a wider view in that use . I find that can be very helpful if you have to first sort of finf your way and the actual entrance you want the probe to enter and see inside of .A good example woiuld be a project I am workinh on on my car . I am tryingto find an evaporator emmission leak . so I am laying under the rear of the car but I have to try to see over a crossmember of the frame and up around the gas tank where there are several com[ponents I have to try to look at to try to find what might be leaking vacuum . The camera is very helpful for this task . The resolution is great ,also the several available lighting levels, and the zoom options . Really great . The articulation of the head of the camera is probably the best feature of all . I used to think that a sort of fixed "fish eye " view by the camera lense was adequate . But I have found that the ability to aim the lense more specifically at different spots is a huge improvement . I am a professional handyman for a living . Sometimes I have to try to see inside drain lines looking for blockages or inside walls to help fish wires , as a couple of examples . I also work on my own vehicles . This scope is very helpful to see down deeper in the engine bay because cars are just a maze of hoses ,wires etc . I have also used it to get a good look inside a catalytic converter to see if the insides were in good shape . In summary this a very well performing camera which has very many uses that come up all the time if you are a guy who likes to work on a variety of projects .It makes things much easier and quicker to get completed . Money very well spent !

This relatively inexpensive borescope has been very useful. I originally bought it to help diagnose a plumbing issue, and since then have been using it to look inside vents and generally in tight place with no visibility. The minimum bend radius can be an issue, but the ability to bend the tip and look around a corner is very useful. The product feels nicely made and has worked reliably with indoor use. The instructions are clear and it is easy to use.
