WiFi 5.5 mm INSPECTION BORESCOPE RECOMMENDATIONS?
Hi all,
I would be grateful for your insights into acquiring a replacement borescope for the workshop. My preference is for the smallest camera head probably 5.5 mm. I'm hoping to keep the snake reasonably short too, so something in the order of 4 metres max but preferably 1 - 2 metre's would suit my needs adequately. WiFi connectivity to Android phone/tablet would be a must, as would an operation time of 1hr and similar charge time.
There appears to be a lot of junk out there, and most of it seems to have a very long snake which I don't want or need.
My preference would be for something like this https://www.amazon.com/Compatible-NIDAGE-I...DG4FK?th=1 which seems not to be available to UK or Ireland.
Budget is £50.00 to £150.00 which I think should be more than adequate for an occasional use tool.
I am very much obliged for your experiences and suggestions.
Thanks, Denyµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ

Cheers Washwipe, its close to what I want and has better op time, if I could squeeze another 2 or 3 mm of the camera diameter it would fit the bill perfectly. Thanks for the response yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ

I did, in the end I went for a Nidage with a 5.5 mm head and 3.5 metre snake as it was the shortest available at that time.
Quality is OK and it does what I need, but as with anything costing £20 you cant expect too much. I'm sure there are better quality borescopes out there but at the time I could not find the spec I wanted.
The camera lens shattered the first time I used it (gets quite hot from the LED's) but I returned it to Amazon and reordered another, so far without issue.yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ
