SKU: GW45.0026
This is a high quality instrument with excellent image quality. First of all, the kit comes with a very nice, custom-fit protective case, which is always a plus, especially for equipment of this nature. The endoscope is easy to use, the menu system and user interface is simple and straightforward. It comes complete with a 32 gigabyte memory card (installed) and fully charged so you can start using it straight away. No USB charger is supplied, but a standard USB A to micro charging cable. It charges from any standard 5 volt USB power source, giving you many options including charging from a notebook or computer. It can be charged and used at the same time - which is another plus. I found the picture quality excellent. The five-inch IPS screen is bright and detailed. I own several inspection cameras of this type and this one has by far the best image quality. It takes photos at 1920 x 1080 (Full HD quality) and records videos at 1280 x 720 on the included 32GB micro SD card. (It supports memory cards up to 64GB) The most outstanding feature of this range is the ability to control the direction of the camera probe. This is a real game changer. If you've ever wrestled with a non-articulating scope to get it where you need it, you know what I'm talking about. It's always frustrating and sometimes just impossible to get where you need to go. The 210 degree swiveling probe (on one plane) solves this problem. A combination of the probe's direction dial and rotating the gooseneck cable allows you to reach places that would be impossible with a non-moving scope. The probe is 5 feet long, which covers most inspection tasks. Another interesting feature is that you can stream the image or video to another device via WiFi, although I found the screen on this one to be so good that you wouldn't need to do that to get a better look, but it's a nice one Function to be able to share what you see with others. This has all the features you would expect from a top quality inspection camera, you can flip the image for a correct "heads up" view, the probe LEDs can be dimmed or turned off completely. As I mentioned before, it captures both stills and videos, puts a date stamp on the images and more... Another great feature is that when you record videos you also record audio - so you can take verbal notes along with it do what you see for future reference. The Owner's Manual is a small 3-1/2" x 5" booklet with only 6 pages. It is clearly written and contains all the necessary information. As I mentioned earlier, the interface is simple, so you don't need a book or an engineering degree to use it. I'm excited about this device. It is technically mature and well thought out. The fit and finish is top notch, the controls work well and the screen is fantastic compared to most. Sure, you can find cheaper devices, but this definitely proves you get what you pay for - a quality tool that's fun to use.

have a very old house and do a lot of DIY work around the house so I actually only have a few different endoscopes which comes in handy from time to time. I love the fact that I can see what's behind the wall or in a pipe without having to tear it down or open it up, which is obviously a much bigger task to patch. I was so impressed with the K&F Concept brand endoscope and when I saw this articulating model I just had to have it and in fact not only is it the best endoscope on the market it blew my mind and saved me a few thousand dollars preventive claims settlement. Please read on to find out how this amazing articulating endoscope has helped me save tons of money. FIRST IMPRESSION: It came in nice retail packaging and inside the box was a sturdy zipped storage case that housed this endoscope in a perfectly fitted shape for maximum protection. The device looks professional and solid in terms of material and feel, which does not surprise me given my previous experience with K&F Concept products. The 5 inch IPS LCD screen is very clear and the buttons are located just below the screen to change setting and mode. DESIGN, SPECS and FEATURES: What really impresses me about this endoscope is not only the swiveling camera head, but also the way the movement is controlled. They really nailed it by using the dial joystick control in the center of the grip so it can be easily controlled with your thumb while holding the grip. Any other design or button would have ruined the user experience, but they really studied and gave the best possible control. Right next to the dial joystick control are the camera button and light button. It takes pictures in photo mode or starts/stops recording videos with sound in video mode. The light button toggles between different preset levels of brightness or turns off the light. Simply brilliantly made and placed in the perfect spot. I also appreciate that this is IP67 rated so it can be submerged under water to inspect anything that contains water and also block out dust or sand. I was impressed with the built-in 3000mAh battery which can last for days if not weeks after a full charge. The beauty of this endoscope is that you can see everything clearly on the 5 inch LCD screen, so you don't need an app or phone to use it, and you can take pictures and videos and then play them back from the device, to view it from the 5 inch screen, not to mention 32GB memory card is included. What's cool is that it also has a WiFi function that allows you to stream what you see on the 5 inch LCD screen to another smartphone or tablet that has the free app installed, so another person can also see what you're seeing, which is really cool. HOW IT CAN BE MORE AMAZING: I really love this endoscope and while this is the best out there I wish these improvements which aren't a deal breaker for me but would only make it more amazing. 1) I wish the cable was longer. It is only 5 feet long, but other non-articulated endoscopes are about 15 feet long. There may be technical limitations to making it longer as it has a moving head, but 10ft would have been better. 2) It would be amazing if the cable could be detached from the device and then attached to the bottom of the handle (current design) or the top of the LCD screen. This design makes it easier to work with the rigid cable, depending on whether you are looking up or down with the endoscope. 3) It would be out of this world if they could make the next model with 360 degree articulation! HOW IT SAVED ME MONEY AND TROUBLES: We recently had a kitchen remodel and replaced all of our kitchen appliances including the range hood. The new range hood we bought was much shorter compared to our old range hood and we can see the opening under the new range hood for venting which we didn't see before on the old range hood. I decided to use this articulating endoscope to check what's behind the kitchen wall and noticed that there was a badly rotted wooden frame due to a water leak from the roof. We immediately hired a contractor to fix the leak, but the repair could have caused a lot of damage and expense if we hadn't known about it years later. I am very satisfied with this endoscope in many ways. CONCLUSION: Easy 10 out of 5 stars. I cannot say enough good things about this amazing device. It's so much better than those endoscopes with two or even three lenses because it's easier to just move the direction of the camera than trying to switch between different camera lenses. It's also much easier to slide and move the cable if you can guide the endoscope's head in the right direction. If you are in the endoscope market, look no further and get this one and it will be worth the investment. Recommend wholeheartedly!

It's really a two-way rotary camera with good image quality. You have what you paid for.

use an endoscope camera as a do-it-yourselfer mainly to explore hard-to-reach corners. The main area of application is the search for leaks in our caravan or other pipes. For this purpose, I once bought an endoscope camera for 200 euros, which fully serves its purpose. So of course I was curious to test what an endoscope camera that is five times as expensive can do and whether such a precious part is worthwhile for me as a hobby craftsman. The professional part is clearly better in terms of image quality and handling. It's all better lit and easier to see. The professional part scores particularly well with the color representation. The operation is very simple and you can control the camera well with the hose. The images on the display are clear and differentiated. You can record photos and videos on a memory card. However, my old endoscope camera also has this function. What the pro part has exclusively is the wifi connectivity. Images can be transferred to a smartphone using an app. This function is very useful when I want to show the images to an expert in a specialist workshop, for example. The workmanship and material quality are very good, plus there's a plus point for the robust and practical transport box. Conclusion: The significantly higher price is reflected in better image quality and more functions. The normal home user will not really need this as a rule and can therefore get by with a cheaper camera. However, if you use such an endoscope camera frequently and would like to pass the images on to third parties, you will find a high-quality tool here at a not cheap but reasonable price.

Has worked perfectly. After a cleaning with a motorized spiral was completed, I was able to use the endoscope camera to check that the blockage was completely removed. The two cameras in connection with the LED display and the split display for the front and side camera made this clear, so that in a few minutes it was clear that the blockage at a distance of about three meters had been cleared.

My first endoscope and I'm totally happy. I think it's a great device with many possible uses for the hobby area. As a hobby mechanic on cars, I can now find lost small parts in the built-in engine compartment without jacking up the vehicle and removing the annoying underpanels. Can now finally take a first look at my engines without removing the cylinder head. The camera quality is sufficient to even recognize the cross-hatch and larger grooves in the cylinder wall. The valve seat and the valves of a 1.3 liter engine are also easy to inspect.

Really very good product, it does exactly what it should and everything has been thought of, 2 cameras for orientation on the front and a side camera. Both work from a distance of approx. 2cm - 3 meters to the object, the focus and brightness adjustment also work good to very good. Since you never know how the sensor is positioned in relation to the object, you can rotate the image by 180 degrees and even !!mirror!!

I gave five stars each for the image quality and brightness, because the quality and resolution of the images are simply great and the brightness is continuously adjustable. I didn't want to try if it was waterproof! Definitely a recommendation for the price - in addition, I hardly see any difference in the image quality to the devices that the large YouTube car workshops use. Images and films can be recorded and transferred to the PC using the memory card provided. Conclusion: A technical endoscope no longer has to cost three or even four-digit sums. In any case, for me as a frequent hobbyist, this is more than enough.

I have used this endoscope camera both in the engine compartment of my vehicle, which is difficult to access, and to inspect our sewage pipe and I find the image quality satisfactory in view of the quite low price.
If the clog in the drain pipe can be located (and cleared) without hiring a costly plumber, it's already a worthwhile investment.
Only the recording and storage function did not work and it turned out that the memory card was defective.
The seller responded obligingly and generously replaced the purchase price with a higher-quality memory card.
The durability of the camera will have to be seen, but will hardly be used due to a lack of demand.
In any case, the neighbors were already delighted that they could fall back on my "endoscope camera service" in an emergency. :-)

I'm a bit surprised. The device is really good. With the large selection, it was difficult for me to choose a device at all. I'm glad it turned out to be this one. The image quality of the cameras is good and was immediately convincing. So far I've only used it for sewage pipes, where the illumination is particularly important. The brightness of the LEDs can be adjusted using a stepless controller on the side. In this way, the illumination can always be adapted to the respective situation. If the camera is too close to an object, the image fades. This effect can then be compensated for using the slider. Orientation is no longer that difficult with the side camera. I can only recommend the unit.
