NIDAGE Wireless Endoscope for Automotive Inspection

[Gary Lewis]

I just used my new borescope for the first time and wanted to report on how it works.  It is the NIDAGE Wireless Endoscope for Automotive Inspection Semi-Rigid Flexible Waterproof 5.5MM WiFi Borescope Camera Compatible Android and iOS Smartphones, iPhone, iPad (4.92FT) and I got it from Amazon.

They have what appears to be the same unit with three different lengths of cable.  But I chose the 5' length so I wouldn't have a lot of cable laying around when I'm trying to use the device, and that seemed to work out well as 5' was plenty.

It works really well, and setup was easy:

1. Put it on a USB charger for a few minutes to ensure it is charged

2. Download the app for your mobile device

3. Turn the borescope on

4. Go to Settings on your device and connect to the borescope via wifi

5. Start the app.

There are several settings for resolution of the camera and for the amount of light the LEDs produce.  I set the resolution to 1080p and left the LEDs on the default setting and got the pic below of the inside of my HVAC plenum.  Plenty of detail and light.

Cool! Thanks for the report!

There has been a lot of advancement in those cameras. I was doing my spark plugs recently and wondered abt sticking a camera down to check out the cylinders. Usually camera quality shows itself in low light situations.
