Vividia VA-150 Two-Way Articulating LCD Monitor Borescope

Little hard to read the screen on the tool. Just record and playback. Bought it to look at some engine valves on a Cummins ISL. Went in thru the injector hole. Rotated the camera so it was pointing up and saw everything. Paid for itself on that one job.

Ease of use, very good picture quality and fine articulation movements.

As a mechanic this is a very useful tool! This boroscope you can only turn the camera in two directions which kind of limits you but you get used to it. The picture quality is pretty good to where you can tell if you have an oil leak in a dark area. the camera can actually flex and turn back towards you to where you could put it in a spark plug hole and be able to look at the valves in the cylinder head. I was able to put this camera through the inspection cover of my bell housing. I slide it up between the flex plate and back of the engine to be able to check the oil galley plugs on the back of the engine for leaks. I've used this camera a lot since I've received it and it's been a great camera.

Disappointing, image is not as good as a $50 unit I borrowed from a friend. There are specular reflections from the LED's picked up by the optics which are just not up to the task with poor contrast, poor depth of field, poor definition, and just not up to the job. Did want to spend the big bucks for a professional unit but should have just gotten the cheapest thing out there since this is no better.

The camera no longer works. although it has been almost 1 year I am still on the original batteries which shows how little I have used them.

Good picture. Wish the camera lead was a bit longer. Controls are a little awkward to use.

Great borescope, especially at this price point. The image quality is good and it's easy to use. The only drawback is that it is difficult to feed the camera, articulate the camera, and hold the unit at the same time. I'm sure I'll figure out a method after a bit more time with the scope.

I was hopeful that by saving the photos to the SD card and viewing on the computer they would be good, but it was very disappointing. I am outside of my return window but this will probably just go in the trash now.
