Oiiwak Endoscope Camera with Light, 5.5 mm Borescope, 4.3" IPS Screen HD Digital Snake Inspection Camera, IP67 Waterproof for Drain, Plumbing, Wall, Automotive- 3.5 m/11.5 ft

I got this to use around the house to see in small spaces, but also for a project of mine. I've been monitoring bird nests as part of the nest watch project and thought that this endoscope would let me see into nest boxes without opening the box. This has worked well, although I'm still working on my "aiming" ability. The picture quality is excellent and I can easily snap photos or take videos onto a small SD card. This has made nest monitoring a lot less intrusive (at least I hope so). I know this is kind of a specific thing, but I think it highlights ways this endoscope can be used for many different purposes. Here are more details about using it. The unit comes with a long, flexible tube that ends in a tiny camera surrounded by lights. I can manage the intensity of the light through a small, marked wheel on the side of the monitor box. The camera tube is connected to the monitoring base unit via a USB connector. I did find that once or twice, the USB connector wasn't plugged in all the way and the monitoring unit reported that it couldn't connect to the camera, but pushing the USB connector back into place solved that, so it's not a problem, just something I check now before I use the unit. Ilike the fact that I can dial down the intensity of the light so easily. The base unit is very simple to operate and shows clearly what is visible through the camera It comes with a small micro SD card and all I had to do was to plug in the unit to a USB charger to charge it up. I've used it several times without having to recharge. The photos I've taken have been clear, so it does exactly what I wanted it to do. I've even been able to use velcro straps and strap the camera to a long piece of bamboo to hold the camera head up to see what was in a nest about 15 feet up in a tree. This little camera and monitoring unit is one of the most useful things I've purchased in a long time. It works well, takes clear photos/videos, and is super easy. Basically, when I turn it on and get the camera positioned, all I have to do is press the little OK button to take photos as it defaults to take photos. If I want a video, I just use the right arrow to point to the video camera icon and press okay to start/stop. Very easy. And besides my pet project, I've found it useful to look behind heavy furniture or under things to find stuff like presence or absence of dog toys so I don't have to move something heavy only to find the toy was not there anyway. It's a great timesaver. And very good for looking behind walls to see if there is any water damage or problems with wiring. Great tool.

Awesome tool especially for the price!! Has an excellent camera which records video and pictures and stores them on its own SD card has several attachments which are useful and the And the on-screen selection of of different functions is easy to operate and much better than the other ones that I've tried has a really good screen battery last for several hours just an all-around good value and a nice tool

I wanted to determine where the leak in my roof was above my main bathroom. I inserted the camera thru a small hole I drilled in the vent tube. I found it difficult to tell exactly where the leak was coming in the low light area. When the camera is close enough to a target, I found the image to be excellent. Main issue I had was trying to get the camera pointed to where I wanted it to go. The wire cord is a little stiff and wants to retain it's shape which can be hard to aim thru a small hole. It did come fully charged, nicely packaged, and worked right out of the box. In all fairness, this was my first time using a device like this so it could very well be I just need more practice. I do think it is a pretty decent product for the price.

Excellent inspection camera. The HD image is very clear, the cable is flexible and durable, and the LED lights allow for perfect visibility in dark spaces. Easy to use and connect to a cell phone. It lives up to all its promises and exceeds expectations. A must-have tool!

Works great in tight place were you can't see

still learning. So far it works.

The best thing about this device is the fact that you don’t need an additional app to use it. Everything is in the box. I ordered this at the beginning of December for a Christmas gift. Took it out of the box and it would only work if it was plugged in. Took out the plug and fiddled with it a bit and still nothing. Bummer! But I saw in a previous review from someone else that customer service was great. So I also contacted customer service. I was asked to send pictures and explain the problem. Within hours I was told that there was a new one on the way! I didn’t need to send the defective one back - only wait for the new device to come. It was due on Saturday but it was delivered today, which is Thursday. I pulled it out of the box and it worked right away AND was fully charged! Overall I have to say it was a very good experience. The device itself is great. The picture quality is good, but the manual adjustments are outstanding! I think it’s definitely worth every dime. Please note that this isn’t heavy duty, so be careful with it. However the cable for the endoscope itself is extremely thick and sturdy. Again, this was an overall excellent experience. Not everything is perfect every time, but having great support is priceless. Definitely worth the purchase!

Starting off, the first one purchased didn’t work, just said “Please waiting” on it. They sent me another, the camera worked, but none of the buttons worked, like it didn’t take pictures or video, but we accepted it as I can always film the video or take a picture with my phone, which is easier than the memory stick they give you. Yes it comes with one. That being said, we were able to use it to locate and light up a cleaning brush that got caught in our shower line-drain. This camera was clear and bright enough to allow us to get a grabber tool in there to snag the old cleaning brush and pull it out. A plumber would have charged us twice what this costs to do that. So I saved money with it, and have a nice tool for some other time. It may not last, like others have said, but it was great for this one time use. Comes in a nice storage case, comes with a hook attachment and vague instructions. MADE IN CHINA

I've had this unit for almost two years now and have used it half a dozen times. Price has increased significantly since purchase so I definitely wouldn't get it again for this money. Here's my take: Pros * Decent picture and display. Clear enough for live viewing * Captures video at up to 1080p * Simple, well-packaged: accessories, memory card, good case, lengthy cable * Battery lasts long enough for most jobs * Zoom and rotate modes Cons * Saved pictures appear very lossy compared to live viewing or videos * No way to set the time and date. Files incorrectly timestamped * Firmware does not appear to be updatable This unit will suffice for most jobs and would acceptable if you get it at a decent price, otherwise I suspect there are better options out there

Good item. Checked it and found very good. Resolution of improving will be the perfect buy.

Good

I just received the camera and after fully charging the battery, I was playing around trying to get familiar with it. I noticed after about 10 min of use, 25% of the battery had been depleted. It took about 4 hrs to charge out of the box, so I think the batter might be faulty. The construction of the hand held control is very cheap plastic, if you drop it, consider it broken. Not rugged at all. With that being said, the picture is clear and great resolution (when on highest resolution). This unit is not very expensive,so your getting what you pay for.
