Industrial Endoscope Single Lens Inspection Camera 1080P HD Endoscope 4.3-inch Screen 360° Adjustable Lens 8.5mm Cable Including 32G Memory Card 5m Cable
SKU: GW45.0012
As a home inspector, my toolbox includes a variety of testing and measuring tools: screw drivers, nut drivers, framing square, concrete and wood moisture meters, temperaturehumidity meters, multi-meters, GFCI & AFCI testers, infrared and probe thermometers, binoculars and a couple of really nice digital cameras to document the appearance of the residence or structure.
Two hands required for a thermal temperature picture, one holding a digital IR thermometer directed at the object while aligning the camera with my other hand to “capture” the reading works well enough; however, a lightweight IR camera attachment to my cell phone is quicker and gives my client a true visual representation of temperature variance.
During a recent home inspection with the house temperature set at 75 and the exterior temperature 61 (picture 1), I felt a breeze several inches away from the chipped plaster above the receptacle and wanted to know more. Placing my anemometer meter at the opening, a 3 mph wind speed was recorded, the draft I felt several inches away. A wide view of the wall was provided by the K&F Concept IR camera that displayed a 9 degree wall temperature difference within 24” inch span (lack of or missing insulation). Removing the cover and receptacle (outlet), I was able to easily insert the lens for a look behind the wall. As the pictures captured, there was no insulation directly behind the receptacle box, above (bent the lens cable upward) and below using the side view camera. The red, yellow, blue, green IR picture is the outside (fiber cement siding). The exterior outlet aligns with the cold spot to the right of the interior outlet and the blue in the upper right corner is the interior outlet. I did not attempt to locate the source of the air leakage, annotating in my report further evaluation by a licensed contractor for options and cost. The nine pictures provided by the K&F Concept and IR camera provide a more comprehensive visual understanding than a mere draft from the outlet.
What is the water bottle for?
I drilled a hole on each end, passed the cable through secured with tape making a lens “stand off” for better observation looking in HVAC duct. With the rounded bottle, I’ve gone 14 feet without getting stuck.
The IR camera comes in a protective small semi-hard case, easy to use with the ability to annotate comments directly onto each picture.
The scope is lightweight and easy to use. All functions (picture, video, light, etc.) controlled by your thumb, except for the side view camera switch which is at the base of the cable. Packaged in a protective hard plastic case, with two metal latches and top and bottom foam padding cut to fit the cable, camera, USB cable and three included lens attachment options is more than adequate. A small magnet, 90 degree mirror and hook to fish wire, or “I dropped my ring in the drain” recovery tool are nice additions.
Providing two options for image transfer (one via the provided USB cable or by removing the mini SD card) gives the user flexibility.
As a home inspector, having a “third eye” is nice to answer any lingering questions regarding temperature and other issues: wall cavities, HVAC units, duct, vents, smoke chamber, chimney…
Adding the K&F Concept infrared thermal camera attachment to my tool inventory will allow more accurate reporting. Well worth the investment.

Great value for money for this camera. As a plumber, you can look for leaks in pre-walls, under bathtubs and showers, for example. In the automotive sector, look behind door panels, tight spaces in the engine compartment or even cylinders, pistons and valves in the engine. Have had this camera for 1 month now which has made a lot of repairs much easier to do. I used to work with an endoscope camera without a moving tip, but this camera is worlds better. I can only recommend it to every screwdriver. Processing is valuable, easy to handle, almost self-explanatory, practice a little and off you go.

ordered it for my vehicles. It's fortunate to be able to see places I couldn't otherwise get to. This unit is well built, sturdy. It comes with a very nice carrying case, a 32GB SD card pre-installed, a USB charging cable to charge the 3000mAh battery which lasts quite a while. I've been using it for over an hour and the percentage hasn't even dropped Head on it, controlled by up and down on the device, very helpful for looking around the area you're in. It has a 5ft length on the camera cable which is semi-rigid so you can position it however you need it, it's IP67 waterproof which means it's perfect if you need to check the plumbing around the house or others Way. Another great feature is that it supports audio which is also amazing as as a mechanic I sometimes need to hear what makes a certain noise. It supports image capture as well as video 720p or 1080p. You can stream from the device to another using the built-in WiFi for easier viewing, but that's not necessary as the built-in screen is phenomenal for viewing. In summary, if you need to take a look at a hard-to-reach spot and see what's happening, I highly recommend you get your hands on this professional tool. K&F Concept did a good job of building a solid unit. I've added a few videos on the picture quality and video quality of some random areas (one of which is my shed outside, inside a soda can, a picture of the unit itself, taken by myself,

The device does what it is supposed to and with absolutely sufficient quality. The ability to create images and videos is a nice feature that allows you to share the results here. The gooseneck looks quite robust and can be moved using a rotary wheel and this function works just great! The endoscope comes in a fairly sturdy box with a fairly thin molded plastic shell. The device itself is really wonderfully intuitive to use. The swivel head can be easily operated mechanically via the handle. The LEDs can be controlled in 3 brightness levels (and off). Optionally, you can also load the APP "Smart Endoscope" on your smartphone and connect to the endoscope via WiFi and display it on your cell phone. The advantage, however, is that the endoscope does not necessarily require an additional device. A nice feature is the temperature sensor in the camera head, which gets quite warm due to the LEDs, but can of course quickly indicate high temperatures. The device makes a stable and valuable impression and delivers impressively good images with a very wide focus range. The LED illumination is bright and you can see everything very well and record it easily. Camera and display quality are very good. The probe is waterproof. With an articulation of 210° you get a comprehensive impression of the interior. All in all, a beautifully compact, self-sufficient endoscope with a swivel head at a fairly high price when you look at the pure USB or WLAN endoscopes. Operating the pan is very simple and can be operated with one finger on the handle. Clear buy recommendation from me...

The K&F Concept endoscope camera comes with a robust storage case. Instructions and a USB cable for charging are also included. The workmanship is flawless and makes a very high-quality impression. The lens head can be rotated so that you can also look to all sides in niches and gaps. The strong LED lighting allows a good picture even in the darkest areas. Everything is shown beautifully sharp on the TFT display. Optionally, you can also connect to the smartphone app to save and view videos and images directly there. The app is intuitively easy to use. The device itself is operated using the 6 buttons on the display and two buttons next to the rotary wheel for the movable tip. The display can be folded if necessary, so that you have a better picture outside with the sun. The temperature is also shown on the display. However, this increases by using the light function. I am very satisfied with the endoscope and can give it a full 5 stars for convincing quality and a good image.

The endoscope camera from K&F Concept is well made and is of good quality overall. The scope of delivery includes the endoscope camera and a description. The endoscope camera is easy to hold, has little dead weight and is very easy to handle. The screen can be tilted so you always have a good view. In the settings menu you can e.g. select the desired language, everything is clear and easy to understand. The endoscope camera is designed to be very user-friendly, the camera can be rotated 210° without much effort, all you have to do is turn the front dial. The 5.0'' HD LCD screen is very clear and the size is absolutely sufficient. The camera offers high-resolution image and video recording, which is stored on the internal TF card. When recording a video, the image and sound are recorded. The size of the memory card is 32 GB, which should be enough for a large number of shots. But there is also the possibility to connect to your own smartphone via Wifi and save and share recordings there. With a video recording, there is also the possibility of audio recording. The endoscope camera from K&F Concept convinces with a reliable functionality, the brightness is easy to control, the camera is easy to control. The recordings and live images are pin-sharp and reproduce the smallest details well. Overall, I think the endoscope camera from K&F Concept is well designed. The quality and workmanship are neat, the functionality is optimal and reliable. Due to the good properties, I can therefore highly recommend the endoscope camera from K&F Concept.

The K&F Concept endoscope camera can be flexibly rotated through a 180-degree angle and can thus take live recordings from otherwise completely inaccessible places. Water resistance is at the top of the list of requirements. With IP67, the 4.3-inch camera also masters water resistance with flying colors. The 8 LED lights ensure that the waterproof pipe camera (IP67) provides a well-lit video image. The price of just under 300 euros (as of October 4, 2022: 299.99 euros) is certainly steep at first glance, but as soon as you have used the endoscope camera from K&F Concept, you save so much valuable time that the purchase quickly pays off. For example, anyone who has a small business and regularly has to carry out repairs on equipment that is very difficult to access will really enjoy this endoscope camera from K&F Concept.

I have a couple of K&F Concept video inspection cameras and have not been disappointed with any of them. This one is no exception. A highly versatile scope, this standalone device offers excellent image quality in an easy-to-use package. Can be used for all types of inspections. This can be one of those things you didn't know you needed until you had one. From wall cavities, automotive work, gunsmithing — you name it. You will love having one of these on hand.
