we've all been there before you've lost something under your refrigerator or maybe you need to check
into that really tight corner that you can't move the furniture to get to that's where something
like this comes in handy hello i'm Wanderer001 and this is my review of a particular endoscope
that was on sale recently on amazon so i figured hey i need something like this in my life so
i figured why not get it while it was on sale this particular model is one of their shorter
lengths of cableage at 11.5 feet they do have one that is more extensive than this but i
kind of like the options that i got with this particular endoscope and in that right over here
you have the the tip which has leds around it to help light what you're looking at
wherever you happen to be looking but it also comes with interchangeable tips which i will
take out of the convenient little tube that i've left them in so i didn't lose them
you have one that is a hook so if you lost that ring or whatever underneath your refrigerator this
will make it much easier to grab there's a mirror right there that lets you look at things at an
angle so you don't have to bend the endoscope as much and then here you have a magnetic head
to help you grab screws or nails that you might have dropped the beauty of all of these is that
you can unscrew the tip of the endoscope here and then each of these tips just screws into
place so it doesn't just sit on the endoscope with pressure and then with the magnet one here
if you get something that's too heavy it gets pulled off that will not go anywhere so that is
very nice the endoscope itself the body of it is made of a rubberized ip67 waterproofing housing
and does allow you to have some flexibility and standardized shape holding which is kind of nice
and then the box itself is really easy to operate with a simple on off switch and you can see it
glows green and then you have for the light here several different levels of lighting to make sure
enough light to see what you're actually looking at the bottom here it is charged with a micro usb
cable which does come with this particular endoscope but it does not come with a wall wart
and the size of the battery depending on usage determines how long you can actually use it
for and charge time isn't terrible because it's really smart because this isn't something
that you leave on all the time this is i have used for it turned off turned on the one thing
with this that i liked over other model endoscopes is you don't need to have a separate peripheral
in order to view what you have from here you just download an app and then this connects via
wi-fi to the application the one thing i didn't particularly care for was the fact that it seemed
like a very generic application wasn't one for this particular manufacturer it's just called hd
wi-fi it seems really odd but let me show you what that looks like what you're going to want to do
first is turn your endoscope on and then identify the network for it so there is going to be no
wi-fi connectivity over it so if your phone pops up with an error message just make sure that you
say i know there's no wi-fi connectivity i don't care let me connect to this and then here we go
has no internet connectivity and i'm going to say yes let me stay connected to this network
because that is for the endoscope and then i'm going to start the app for the endoscope here
and this is kind of the basic thing that you're looking at you've got your record video and here
we'll just stick that over towards my my desk area there so you've got record video so tapping
that will record a video of what you're seeing you can stop that you could take a picture of whatever
you're looking at and then you've got your album here which will allow you to download your videos
or your photos it's very simplistic and i do like that the actual endoscope itself does have a 1080
30 frames a second video feed and it is a live feed if i move this bottle over here you can see
how quickly that changes also how close it looks other options for your endoscope video here
you can rotate your image which is helpful if you happen to have your endoscope
in an area and it's upside down i'll throw in some video footage of two places that i was using
it originally which was for checking inside of my air conditioner to see what was going on in there
and then also i was trying to put it under a dresser drawer to find out why it was sticking
and as i was going through there it was really confusing and upside down and i needed to fix
the orientation and i didn't tap that button so i was looking at things upside down for a while just
like you were looking at the other option over here is options and then here you can modify your
wi-fi name the password the resolution which here you can see i have it for 1920x1080 but you have
lots of other options there and then you can modify the resolution right there we are going
to select back which brings us back to our live video feed so what i'm going to do now is that was
really covering the application for this endoscope what i'll do now is i will swap out the different
tips of the endoscope to give you an idea of what they look like in the video feed when you're using
them here is an example of the hook feed and we'll throw the bottle over here just so we can kind of
look at that up close and see what that looks like and then i'll show you also differing brightnesses
so that you know what it will look like with the hook feed here is your slanted
mirror feed and what i'm actually doing with the endoscope is i have it pointed straight
up and down as opposed to how i had it before so here i actually have it right next to the bottle
of water if i held it in the same orientation that i was with the other options you would see my face
on camera and i really don't want to do that so here's what the different levels of brightness are
and you'll see that if you use the led lights with this particular one
it kind of washes out and you can't see anything so maybe with the mirror make sure you have
another light source to use and then last but not least is our magnet head here and we're just gonna
cycle the brightness so you get an idea so magnet head also is going to wash it out a little bit
but you'll notice that each of the heads is still usable with the video camera
which is nice and each has its own specific purpose having different options for the head
is kind of cool and one of the things that i actually appreciated more about this particular
endoscope than some of the other ones that i saw so with the example of the application and
the actual video feed that you get from this as well as samples of video that i took elsewhere
at other times question is i said this was a good buy how much did it cost me well considering that
prices on everything now are a little more fluid the price range for this currently as of date of
filming is anywhere between 35 and 28 if you get this on a lightning deal and one of the
things that made me feel much better about my purchase is if you follow adam savage and his
tested youtube channel i'll have a link over there for it this is actually the exact endoscope model
that he was saying he uses because one they've come down in price so drastically two you don't
need to have a separate peripheral for viewing you can do so via an application on your smartphone
so if you have a smartphone already don't worry pick up an endoscope you'll find a use for it
at some point or a friend will need something and you can lend them yours so for me personally this
is something that just about everybody will find some use for and it's cheap enough to
just pick up and have around your house for when you do need it with that being said i have been
