About this deal

Wireless inspection cameras use wifi to transfer data. The images and videos taken can be transferred to a screen for viewing. These are used in any situation where you need to view the data being collected in real time.

If you’re not going to be needing an ultra-sharp image, you’ll be able to get away with a lower resolution. Led Lights Some inspection cameras use disposable batteries. While these are more convenient because there’s no need to wait hours for the battery to charge, they may work out more expensive and you’ll need to dispose of the batteries after use. Keep the camera lens clean. Use a dust-free cloth to keep the view clear. If the lens gets very dirty, you can use alcohol wipes to gently remove debris. To start with, you get a whopping ten metres of inspection cable. That’s more than double compared with the other cameras on my list and means this tool can get you just about anywhere you need to go. The cable is IP67 rated against water and dust incursion, so you can feed it underwater without issue. There are six bright LEDs on the end to illuminate the target area as well. There aren’t a lot of modern endoscope/borescope options that feature wireless capabilities like this one that also include nearly 50 feet of semirigid flexible cable, giving you almost all of the probing and scoping capabilities of the “all-in-one” units with the myriad of benefits that these modern separate options include as well.Camera resolution: the more the better, though remember these cameras must be tiny to be useful. Be aware that some makers 'upsample' resolutions to make it sound better than it actually is (a common way is recording higher resolution video than the camera's sensor can make use of). The 8 mm diameter flexible camera head contains 4 bright LEDs that do a good job of lighting up the darkest spots and have three different levels of brightness. You get 95 cm of cable to inspect pipes or behind wall cavities, which isn’t loads, but it wraps neatly around the unit and doesn’t take up much room. Thanks to the major leaps forward in innovation (particularly when it comes to compact digital camera technology) today’s top endoscopes are not only light years more advanced than even those released just 10 years ago – but they are more user-friendly and a lot less expensive, too. Wi-Fi: this could be handy for viewing footage on your smartphone at a safe distance from the actual dirty work Wireless endoscopes take both pictures and videos, which are viewable live or can be saved to your device’s memory or the cloud. Generally speaking, if you want to get the best images, you need to find a balance between zoom and brightness. If you zoom in too close, images can become blurry and degraded. Sometimes the highest level of brightness is far too bright and washes out images and details. Attachments

First off, and what makes this the best inspection camera on my list is the dual-camera setup. Not only do you get the main front-facing camera, but another one pointing at 90° for an unbeatable field of view. Whether you’re buying an inspection camera, a CCTV camera or a bird box camera, the resolution is always going to be a factor. The higher the resolution, the clearer the image will be, but the camera will also be more expensive.

The AnyKit 1200P USB Endoscope is the one to get if you’re looking for an endoscope you can use with a desktop or laptop computer. It’s not Wi-Fi-powered like the previous ones, but instead uses a USB connector to work with Android phones or Mac or Windows computers. Since it isn’t battery-powered, you don’t have to worry about charging it, which can save you some time and potential frustration. It also comes with a semi-bendable cable so you can position it as needed to get the proper view. The adjustable LED lights mean you can use the proper amount of light for the scene you’re observing. The most important thing to consider before buying an endoscope is what devices it will be compatible with. Many of the endoscopes on our list work via Wi-Fi with smartphones, while others connect via USB cable to certain phones and computers.

The BlueFire Semi-Rigid Flexible Wireless Endoscope is a CMOS HD camera with two megapixels of resolution and adjustable LED lighting. It has an extra-long semi-rigid cable, but we found that it isn’t firm enough to use much beyond a five-foot distance. Memory card storage: most borescopes offer fixed internal storage but some have removable SD cards – useful if you need to offer images to a client.On top of that, this tool features a 4.3 inch QVGA color screen that is high definition enough to feel like you are physically looking at the images and videos your endoscope is recording. This is all possible because of the 1080p HD camera set up in this particular model, an industrial camera solution that uses CMOS high visibility sensors as well as six adjustable LED lights to illuminate whatever you are trying to get a closer look at. Images can be recorded as stills or video to the SD card, or output via the analog connector. Admittedly the design features what feels like a historic connector – the Mini-USB –but this is a professional tool with a professional price and the cost of a USB adapter is hardly relevant. FAQs What is the difference between a borescope and an endoscope?

The HD camera on this particular model measures in at just 5.3 mm in diameter (0.21 inches), making it ridiculously small and compact and about 1/3 smaller than your traditional 8 mm diameter cameras you will find on so many other options. This allows this camera probe to go places that other cameras cannot, but also gives it a lot more flexibility and a lot more versatility in reaching tight corners and hard-to-find areas as well. When the camera lighting is fully turned up, it ends at around 10 cm, depending on the brightness of the object; A bit of a hybrid between the “traditional” all-in-one endoscope options we’ve reviewed above as well as the more modern wireless options, this particular unit looks a lot like a space-age fishing pole and offers the compact form factor of the wireless units with the control and capability of the all-in-one systems. Of course, you may not know exactly what task you are using your camera for. The models I’ve recommended have variable focal distances; a distance of between 3 and 10 cm would be suitable for a wide range of tasks. Cable Type and LengthWhile you may be hoping to get a camera that provides crisp full-HD video, the miniaturization that goes into this process means that full-HD video can be really expensive in endoscopes. However, you still have some options that can deliver crisp video without a huge price tag. Inspection cameras are versatile cameras that enable you to look at areas you wouldn’t normally be able to access. They consist of a tiny camera at the end of either a rigid or flexible cable. Whether you’re inspecting an area behind a wall, down into a drain or inside your car, an inspection camera can give you a clear view. Types of Inspection Cameras It’s important that your inspection camera is waterproof, especially if you’re going to be using it in damp areas or to inspect drains. Those with a fully waterproof rating can be used underwater. A. Yes. In fact, investing in a wireless endoscope is a cost-effective option for mechanics and car enthusiasts alike. You’re able to see hard-to-reach areas to diagnose issues without removing larger parts that are time-consuming to take apart and reassemble. It also saves you the hassle of lifting your car to get beneath it, because you can simply inspect the bottom from a standing position once you manipulate the semi-rigid cable appropriately. It’s worth noting that while the camera and cable itself may be waterproof, the screen and display might not be. This means a lot of care still needs to be taken when working in damp areas or around drain pipes. Focal Distance
