No more inspection mirror and flashlight
I just came across this product, Crazyfire Endoscope. I'm ordering one and can't wait to try it out. I don't know how many times I've messed around with a mirror and flashlight trying to get a good look at something that is out of sight. Lot's of uses for this item beyond the RV. I can't believe the price.

Reviews on Amazon don't look great but they are not always accurate; let us know how well it works for you.

If it is reliable it would be a great deal.

I picked up a cheap hand held camera with the scope attached to it from Harbor Freight . On sale & with a coupon cost about $15.00. Have been using it for about a year & it is still working. I usually don't buy this type of stuff from Harbor Freight unless it is for a one time use. Just had a rear Heat Pump replaced & let the RV tech use it to fish wires thru the duct work & down a wall to mount the new thermostat. He liked so much he went & got one.

I bought something like from China, it more or less works but it does have plenty of problems of its own.

I have a similar unit that plugs into the USB port on a Windows or Mac computer. One of the other advantages is that you can record its video capture to go back and review what it found.

That was my thinking, could save a lot of time and expense, or a side line business.

It's certainly cheap enough. Even if it didn't last long.

My thought also. But I did find this one at 2x the price. But still isn't too expensive and I know I would use this at least weekly with my fumbling hands and tools/parts...

Strange as it may seem WISH.COM has an endoscope/Borescope, 3 different sizes, less than 10 bucks (it is normally far more expensive)
I have one on order, should be here by the end of next week... I have many uses for such a device
THANKS to the Original poster for the suggestion

That site is incredible! I've never seen prices like that anywhere! I found three of them on there, one for $8, one for $6 and one for $4. Are these the one you ordered? They are for Android phones only!

I just found this one for IOS, but it's a LOT more expensive!
