Coolest $20 tool i've bought in a LONG time
 

This just in from Amazon. A $20 usb cam with led's. This puppy is awesome.

Pic is a box of large paper clips just to give an idea how close it can focus. Got this after watching a youtube guy, chrisfix, do a test of fuel system cleaners. he scoped each cylinder, ran the stuff then scoped again. Awesome gadget for $20!

Plugs into USB port on PC. The wheel you see is for adjusting brightness of the LED's.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1455907506.jpg

OK, so you brag about a cool new toy and you give no link to where I can get one like it?

Meanie!

Looks like he bought this...

Have one of these too as well as a shorter one with a more rigid yet bendable neck. Both are hugely handy for checking piston tops and valves via an engine's plug hole and ports. Also great to check for rust in sills, condition of a petrol tank... The list is endless!

I was looking at it on Amazon and our company pilot walked by my desk. I asked if he had a neat toy like that. I showed him the "high dollar" 15 MP version for 27 bucks. He handed me the 27 dollars cash and I ordered one with my Prime. It will be here Monday.

It does look like a neat toy, er, um tool!

Darn you guys, I'm trying to stop spending! ;)

they are cool! bought one similar to this month or two ago around $20 also. works great but can't get my cat to swallow it.. for testing purposes only of course. about a 15ft(5m) cable. short focal length though. sharp video within a couple inches. you can watch live or record

Self-serve colonoscopy for some i SUPPOSE!

I am going to the butt head to derail this thread. Thanks goodness its made in China for only 20 bucks. None of you, myself included, would never buy this if it was made in the US due to the cost.

I can use something like it, totally cool.

Just think of the all uses in porn, and no I'm not going to google that.


here's a direct from China source I often use, free shipping on most items.

super cheaper than Amazon, many models / options, including magnetic pickup tip...nice feature!


endoscope - Buy Cheap endoscope - From Banggood

i thought the collective agreed that paying 5x as much locally was a patriotic duty.

It would be nice to poke the camera down the spark plug hole. I'm always curious how much carbon is in there and whether I need to drive it harder or not.

I found about these shortly after I bought my scope from snap on . I wont even tell you what I had to put out for it

Very cool - I'm ordering one and will figure out what I need it for afterwards!

:)

Man, this is exactly what I wanted - I was wondering just the other day if I could pick up something reasonable to check a hidden body cavity in my Fiat.

Wonder if an "IMF" decal comes in the box?

Dropped it in my Honda scooter cylinder. Good pic. Can't wait to do truck and boat.

I would have killed for a borescope a few times in my wrenching career. Back then it would be a fiber bundle for $500 which you'd look through directly.

Now I know what to get, next time I need to look into a chamber. (Knock on wood I won't any time soon!)

Thanks for the tip. I've been wanting something like this for a long time. Last time I looked the price was hundreds of dollars. I'm glad I waited.

Timely.....
They are gonna run one of them thingys into my bladder in a few weeks.
I'll leave its route to your imagination.:eek:
