Just bought one of these little gizmos off e-bay. What a handy little piece of gear it's going to be when needed.....like 2 weeks ago (before I got it)....looking for the damn block drain petcocks on my 454. Had a hell of a time locating the port side drain.

Should prove to be a pretty useful little tool in my inventory from time to time. Even takes still pictures and records video. :grin::thumbsup:
 
Neat little device but I think they need to adjust their advertising a bit. Check out the picture of the guy looking up the girl’s skirt! I would guess this device would have other uses.:grin:

That is hilarious! I didn't notice until you mentioned it.

There were alot of these things on ebay last week. Starting at $86.00 I believe. I settled on one that was $116.00.

Then I got an e-mail from the seller....they had one left....tested it and it didn't function properly. "Would I like to upgrade to a better one with still photo & video capability or get a refund?"

This an "upselling" trick? Dunno.

But I upgraded to this one I got......for another $43.00 added to the price.

Still worth it to me if I don't have to hang upside down over my engine (or hire a midget) to see things in the bilge.
 
They are neat tools. I bought one from harbor freight last year, and have saved a ton of money by finding serious issues in my 340 with it. Mine can't take pictures though, if I had to do it again, I would have bought one that could.

Just make sure that you heed the warnings in the instruction manual about colonoscopy.

While the Harbor Freight model won't take puctures by itself, I believe it has a VIDEO OUT output that you can connect to a camera or flipcam input to record video or take individual pictures.
