Wifi Endoscope Inspection Camera 5.5mm 1920P HD Borescope IP67 Waterproof Snake Camera with 6 LED Light for iPhone iOS Android Phone (5M)

I have to say that I was a bit worried about how difficult this might be to connect to my iPhone 8 but I needn’t have been concerned. Going to my WiFi and selecting the right connection was very easy and quick, it was available to use straight away.The app takes a few moment to get used to but once you get to grips with it, your off.The picture quality is as you would expect, clear and precise. This was another area I was worried about but I was impressed and quite happy with the performance.For what i paid, this is a quality product and appears to work well on the couple of occasions I have used it.

I had a problem with a box I had built to enclose central heating pipes above a boiler. I didn’t want to box sittong on the boiler and was unsure whether the French cleat I used as a hanger was connecting properly. An ad came up on Twitter, or X as it has bizarrely been renamed, for an overpriced 50 per cent limited time offer for an endoscope from a dodgy company.The idea was right even if the firm wasn’t, so a search on Amazon and I picked this one on a special offer. It was the best resolution, and smallest diameter head among the cheaper models and as it would be for occasional use – one job at the time – I didn’t need the far more expensive pro models.Down at this more modest end of the range there are models that plug directly into your phone, but this uses Wi-Fi which I find much more sensible. Your phone becomes a monitor which you can hold or place anywhere.You download the app for either Android or iOS, and away you go.The control unit seems to charge for ages, the red light never went out, so I just decided it had been charged enough and started to use it. There is a thumb wheel to change the light brightness, but in most cases you are going to need full brightness.The control unit does not appear to be the most robust but then again I won't be sticking it in a toolbox and lugging it from job to job, so with modest care it should be fine.To use the endoscope you switch it on then go to Wi-Fi settings on your phone and change to the network being transmitted by the unit, then open the app and the picture from the endoscope camera shows.The picture is clear enough, and you can get quite close to objects and although it does not magnify it does give that appearance as you look at, for example, screen filling pictures of printed text from a couple of centimetres away. You can take a picture or record a video if you want or just use the feed from the camera to see what is going on.As for the job it was bought for. It showed that the box connection was solid, and then it was useful to look behind drawers in a kitchen cabinet to see if anything, or perhaps more accurately, what had fallen down there without having to empty the drawer and manoeuvre it in and out.I have had a look down sink U bends, checked the wiring arrangement in a false ceiling in the bathroom where a bulb had failed and, a feature not mentioned in the selling points, my grandchildren delight in looking in their ears and up their noses and the back of their heads, as well as looking at the toes of their shoes from the inside.It comes with a few accessories, clip on ends, which gives you a hook, a magnet and a mirror. The mirror is . . . not that useful to be honest, but anyone undertaking any DIY work will know that there is an unwritten law that screws that fall as you remove them or try to fix them, will drop into the most inaccessible place possible, behind sideboards or storage units, o under cupboards for example, so the magnet can come into its own there, while the hook will have its own specialised uses – a ring down a drain for instance. Not a daily occurrence admittedly, but it can happen.Most of the time though the endoscope will be used as an inspection lamp for small and tight spaces and, as far as the average DIYer is concerned, after the initial novelty of looking at anything you can find, it will be an occasional tool but an extremely useful one, and the only one that could do the job. One of those tools you never knew you needed until you do, and then you wander how you ever managed without it.

Bought this for inspection of drilled/tapped holes in walls.Company I work for had paid £200 for an endoscope camera, picture quality was terrible and you couldn't send picture digitally from device.So I purchased this for a fraction of the price and get much better quality photos directly to my phone, NO BRAINER.

Works well good image

This endoscope replaced an older USB version I've had for years. It's much thinner 5.5 mm and the picture is much much better. I've no complaints about the image quality, or the brightness of the LED lights, they're great. The 90 degree accessorry is useless, more a piece of silver paper on a wire support. A home made version on using sliver of mirror is better.Connecting my Android phone is simple. The Andrfoid app works fine, it does all the things I could wish for, Video, split video and photos, photos. Holding the endoscope, and then finding the shutter button on the phone is difficult, the button would be better on the black box.Black box battery lasts far longer than I wish for, I've recharged it, but it hasn't ran out in the time I've used it.I can't compare it to others, but I'd be very happy with this, if the mirror worked, the clip on accessorys look more like toys, whilst the endoscope and WIFI connection look like "proper". Photo of some text, and the inside of a brick cavity, looking for insulation.

Happy with this, camera gives a good picture, LEDs are bright enough for task and app works fine. Only place I can see a use for 5m long cable is in straight tube but worth having just in case. Good item.

Bought this specifically to help locate wiring looms during my campervan conversion, proved invaluable locking wires or confirming no wires were present behind panels before drilling into panels walls etc.Obviously has other uses but for me it proved a great investment as damaging a wire loom would cost many times more than this cost to replace/repair.

Works fine with the app on my phone

Fácil de usar y relación calidad precio muy buena. Se ve y se maneja muy bien.

L'activation des LEDs provoquent des énormes halos (gros points blancs) sur l'image, qui font qu'on ne voit rien, même en réglage bas.La résolution n'est pas bonne, ça saccade en cas de mouvements...Les outils fournis (crochets...) ne se vissent pas, donc risque de les perdre si vous les accrochez en bougeant la caméra.Seul point positif : le diamètre de la caméra de 5.5mm.

Si joint une photo pour montrer la qualité très médiocre de cette endoscope.Dès que l’on bouge un peu, impossible de prendre une photo propre.Je suis très déçu par ce produit.
