DEPSTECH Endoscope Camera with Light, 5" IPS Screen, Dual Lens Borescope 7.9mm, 1080P Plumbing Snake Inspection Camera with Split Screen, 32GB TF Card, Hardshell Case, Gadgets for Men, Mechanic-16.5FT

We needed to see into a pipe to determine if something had dropped into it, our options were to rent a camera or to call and get a charged for a service call on a weekend. We saw this camera and decided to give it a try since we could get same day delivery. The camera worked out great!!! It actually has two cameras; one is in the front, and one is on the side, and you can see both camera views at the same time on the viewing screen. It was easy to use, charged up fast, can take a picture or video, comes with the charging cable and mini-SD card, and we loved that it had a handle. One of us ran the camera into the pipe and the other watched the view screen as the camera moved thru the pipe. Our retired plumber friend was impressed with the clarity of the pictures. We also liked that the picture was in color. This is going to be a great tool to add to our toolbox...a great gift for that someone that has everything. This camera can be used in a ton of areas, pipes, car repairs, vents, to see behind a wall without making a big hole and I am even planning on using it to check our wood stove chimney liner next spring.

The storage case is more practical with a carry handle and foam cutouts to protect the unit.Let’s start by saying that the Depstech DS590 endoscope is a nice improvement over other models. The screen is large, bright and super sharp. A 2-3 hour working time with the larger rechargeable battery is a good amount of time to use the unit without having to charge or plug in a power bank.It does take a little time to get used to the buttons as some of them have multiple functions depending on a quick press or hold. Reading the manual quickly clarifies this.Taking a picture or a video is a piece of cake, press the orange button once quickly for an image or press and hold to start/stop the video. After, the images can be viewed on the screen or use the included cable to connect to a laptop to upload the images or videos. The Micro SD memory card can also easily be removed and put into the card slot on a computer for easy access and download. You may need to use an SD card adapter, but it seems that most of us have several these days.Clarity of the image is exceptional, although if the camera cable is placed many feet away from the main unit, pictures can be a little shaky as would be expected over a long wire/cable length.I have added a few images taken with this endoscope, one is what a garbage disposal unit looks like. Surprise, there are no blades. The other images I took of an hvac vent/duct. I was able to see how much dust and debris has accumulated over the years, which needs to be professionally cleaned.With this tool, out of sight, out of mind is an old adage. What couldn’t be seen before is now easily seen.With this tool one can:Check to see if a clothes dryer vent needs cleaning from where the outside exhaust is located.Check to see if inside the clothes dryer past the lint screen needs to be cleaned.The above is important as house fires have happened from lint laden vents.Check Air conditioner and heating ducts for dust buildup. Cleaning on a regular basis will keep these systems working easier, more efficiently and longer.Look under refrigerators and freezers to see dust and debris needs to be cleaned.Garbage disposals and what is jamming same.Drains of all types. If something accidently been dropped, such as a ring, it can be easily found and retrieved using the magnet or hook attachments. This is especially useful as one does not need to disassemble the drain trap.It is useful to look inside of walls for electrical lines or plumbing with only a small, easily fixable hole.Working on a car: Dropped nuts, bolts and other small parts can be easily located and extracted.I am planning on opening my water heater to examine the condition of the anode rod and check for accumulated hard water scale. I normally acid wash and change the anode rod about every 3 years.I will be able to see any and all mineral scale buildup and make sure the cleaning is complete before putting it back in service.For all you hands-on home improvement warriors, this is a must add for your toolbox.

Removes the mystery behind walls and difficult to access areas. This is a very handy and easy to use endoscope. The screen is sufficiently large and the handle with control buttons really makes using this device a breeze. The high-resolution image displays excellent detail and the probe LED illumination works fantastic.The camera and software do virtually everything you would expect. After reading the manual and using this device a time or two, the features and functions become intuitive. Battery life is two to three hours and is plenty of working time for most jobs. The accessories and case are great and the flexible 16' probe is just rigid enough. This is an impressive high-quality tool at a reasonable price. Check it out for yourself... you'll be glad you did.

Picture resolution is great. I like the 2 camera feature. I turned it on right when I got it to make sure it operated.Just today, finally, I looked at my #1 piston and cylinder. Showed great detail of cylinder cross hatch and carbon on top of the piston. The unit looked new when I got it. Not an Amazon return boomerang. Has a nice carrying case and little booklet manual is good.

I recently started hearing clicking inside the wall similar to water dripping and I thought that I needed a tool to inspect inside the wall to verify if its actually water leak.This tool exceeded my expectations. it's all in one feature which means the device can be handled in one hand and the endoscope on the other.It came with a hard case and nice padding inside, though rolling the endoscope back to the exact same size might be a challenge. I recommend DEPSTECH increasing the case cavity size for the endoscope.LED brightness can be adjusted to reduce glare when getting closer to reflecting objects.Endoscope head accessories are helpful including strong magnet and a hook.The screen is clear and images have high details. Bear in mind this is meant for close objects 1"-3" so farther objects will be blurry.Dual lens can be helpful in some situations without the need to adjust the endoscopeThe inclusion of a 32GB SD card was a thoughtful touch, eliminating the need to worry about running out of storage space during longer inspection tasks. You are able to take pictures and record 1080 videos which will be stored on the card.No setup is needed except adjusting date and time, just power on and you are ready to go.The borescope camera is one of the tools that you might not think you needed until you are faced with a situation that will come in really handy and can save you a lot of time and money. Highly recommend!
