Endoscope WiFi, Wireless Endoscope Camera for Android 2.0MP Borescope Inspection Camera with Flexible Grabber 16.4ft (5M)

I recently changed the transmission fluid in the gearbox of my sailboat engine. While trying to remove the plastic tube I was using to remove fluid, it caught on the gear mechanism and sheared off. I knew that if I tried to run the engine, it would destroy it. The alternative would be to have the boat towed several miles, have the engine removed, and then split apart the gear box to remove this piece of plastic. I used this endoscope tool to see the tube (first picture), then used the various attachments to retrieve it. I hope you never find yourself in a similar situation, but, if you do, the ROI on $36 may be huge. 😊

This was borderline exactly what I expected for a $35 camera. The thing I didn’t expect was…1) There’s a little box attached to the end of the cable that’s creating its own wifi network.2) To use this camera, you need to download an app from an unheard of (at least to me) Chinese company and connect to that box’s wifi network.3) You give it a few permissions and it all works, but just felt a little… strange.That said, the product otherwise worked as expected. I used the camera, combined with the separate, but included, ‘grabber’ to look up my washer’s drain and pull out a sock that was blocking the pipe. Little tricky, but it worked and saved me a couple hundred bucks!The cable itself is pretty firm and I imagine could be ‘pushed’ along a pretty good distance. The light on the end is a nice touch. It’s connecting via wifi so it drops a couple frames and lags a little. My guess is the quality is 720p. But again, I didn’t need 4k to see a sock in a drain.It’s definitely not the best out there, but good for when in a pinch or for a basic need.

It doesn't come with a claw attachment. It's another type of grabby thing on the side and the video is a little bit shaky, because the cord is not strong enough to support it, so it wiggles, and so you're constantly trying to adjust where your camera's at and it's really hard to do when. You're inside like a wall and so. The light still is it's bright, but it's not bright enough to light up the whole area. So grimly need light too. It was easy to hook up and setup like I got attached within seconds and it was not very hard. It was not very stressful so that was good. But I would kind of like to have that claw attached to the camera. And all the attachments that attached to the camera are in the way of the camera like. There's no way to actually see where you're going once you have the hook attached.

I was super excited about this product. I had plumbing problems for a while. A flashlight had fallen down my pipes, and I tried everything to try to get it out. I was hopeful that this endoscope would work because it was advertised with the grabber being able to be attached to the endoscope. That is where they get you. It can be attached...WITH TAPE!!! The grabber thing is fairly short and cannot be used if something you are trying to get is not within a fairly short range. If you tape the grabber onto the endoscope, you can use the grabber thing if the object is far away because you cannot push the grabber because it is not long enough. The actual endoscope worked okay. The picture was always kind of blurry. It doesn't work well under water. It can't see in the dark, but if you turn on the light, it just glares back because of the water it is in. This product might work for you if you have different needs, but it didn't work the way I wanted it to for me. The endoscope is wires wrapped in a thick covering. The first time I used it, the casing broke and exposed all the wires.

I was putting leftover gas in my tank from a 1 gallon plastic container when the spout separated and went down almost to the tank. For a month, no gas station or repair shop could help me. I decide to look on amazon and this was the solution. A WiFi camera/video scope with a grabber at the end of a long extension. Worked perfectly to get the plastic spout out of my gas tank.

First one was defective but Amazon replaced promptly. Second one works as designed, pretty easy to set up. The grabber arm that comes with the kit is a little short, like maybe 2 ft long and has to be taped to the endoscope but that’s fine. I plan on replacing the grabber with a longer one. Works fine for the price point. The cable connections are a little flimsy but not a real issue so far but we shall see with prolonged use.

I had a spark plug break. In the process of removing it, the tip fell into the cylinder head. I was very distraught! Then a friend suggested I buy this camera. It worked awesome! I could see the broken parts, then use the claw, and the magnetic tips to clean it all out. This saved me a very costly repair cost because the other option was to take the head off. I would have gave it a 5 star, however the directions are hard to follow as they are translated from Chinese by someone who does not have a solid knowledge of English. Also, the app to get it to work has two separate downloads and it uses wifi, instead of bluetooth. I only got it to work by trial and error.

True story. This grabber with light and camera saved me over $1000. One of my diamond stud earrings fell from my ear in the shower and went down the drain. I was so distraught; my husband gave the earrings to me when we first married in 1992 and I just felt sick in my stomach at the thought they might be gone for good. I was pretty sure that the shower also has a pea trap like a sink but not as deep or as easily accessible so I asked my son if he could help me. He suggested ordering this grabber with the light and camera that, with an app you can see what the camera sees on your cell phone . What seemed like a very long two days later, we were able to see it in the shower trap very clearly,, using the phone app. He was able to retrieve my diamond stud and gold earring as well as the little gold earring backing using the device! I cannot give enough stars and to say thank you, thank you, thank you to the people who marketed this. And of course, my son got a lot of thank you,s from me as well, for several days after. Wonderful product...worked like it is supposed to!
