Worth paying that bit extra
Pleased with this inspection camera. The quality of it and the clear images make it worth its price tag. It’s easy to use and although it would be great to be able to record on it I much prefer not downloading these dodgy looking foreign apps that seem to come with things these days.
Would recommend.
Very Useful Tool and Simple to Use
Fantastic, handy little device. Very simple to use, with large tactile buttons, an excellent battery life and no proprietary cables, easy to charge with any USB-C.
The screen is large and clear, and the image quality is pretty good.
Depending on the situation, it can be quite fiddly to manoeuvre and hold and watch the screen at the same time so a built-in clamp or something like that would have been good, otherwise, some jobs will be far easier with another pair of hands and eyes. But could still be a huge timesaver.
Extra attachments are a nice touch and I imagine will come in handy sooner or later.
Overall a good simple and compact device and surprisingly useful and versatile.
Very useful
A great tool for those whose eyeballs aren’t easily removable so as to look at things through a gap too small to fit a whole head in. I wanted it to see how my floor was constructed as most of it is all over the place levelwise, so I could attempt to determine if this was indicating a significant problem, or something I could ignore.
It has a nice clear display and the controls are clear, simple,and idiot proof.
It just works, operating as expected. No need for a manual, which is just as well given the brevity of the one supplied.
A simply tool that works well, that does its job, a job I know of no other way of doing easily. The alternative would probably have been removing all the furniture, ripping sections of laminate up, and then removing the flooring so as to see what’s down there, instead I was able to use a removable section of floor, used for central heating pipe access/maintenance, and shove the probe down through it and have a look around – much less aggravation, and much much cheaper.
It’s a pretty basic endoscope but it did what I wanted, without my having to learn anything to use it.
USB C port to charge it’s internal battery, said battery lasts at least an hour.
Happy to give it 5 stars.
Great performance and versatility
I have been using this industrial endoscope for a while now in various environments, and I am extremely pleased with its performance and ease of use. The portable and ergonomic design makes it easy to hold, and the LCD screen is bright and crystal clear. The cable is stiff and flexible, and the endoscopic camera probe is waterproof and captures high-definition images in real-time. The light was bright enough to identify any problem during the inspection, and the zoom-in and zoom-out features were easy to use and super useful. Overall, the build quality of this endoscope is solid. It feels sturdy and well-made, is lightweight, and has top-notch quality. I highly recommend it for automobile inspection, home appliance repair, drain pipe inspection and more.

This endoscopic camera has been a godsend tbh. We had problems with our plumbing, namely the downstairs toilet. Heavy rain meant that for some reason, it was getting backed up and getting it looked at would be very expensive. This little gadget did the trick. The problem was quickly identified and saved me a fortune. The camera is good value for money, and it’s pretty sturdy. If had a similar camera before and it got dropped and was useless thereafter. Not this one. I like too, that it’s rechargeable and you can flip the screen a basic, easy to operate model, it’s right for me.
Title: Great Inspection Camera!
I’ve been using this inspection camera to check tight spaces for work.
Pros:
*The 5-meter cable length is really convenient, allowing me to reach far-off areas easily.
*The video feed is clear and stable, providing a reliable view of what I’m inspecting.
*The 4.3-inch screen is large enough to see details clearly without straining my eyes.
Cons:
*While the cable is adequate, it could be further reinforced for better durability.
In conclusion, this inspection camera has been a handy tool for my work projects and home maintenance tasks.
L’cran est trs lisible, la rsolution en haute dfinition permet de bien voir, on peut rgler l’intensit lumineuse de la camra, faire tourner l’image et zoomer en x 2.
Le cble est la fois rigide et souple, ce qui permet de le faire tourner facilement. Il est une grande longueur on peut explorer vraiment trs loin .
Malgr le prix trs raisonnable pour moi c’est un appareil de qualit professionnelle.
a permet d’viter des travaux inutiles, et de savoir prcisment ce que l’on doit faire au lieu de devoir tout casser ou de tout dmonter, autant dans l’entretien de sa maison, que de ses vhicules, pour peu qu’on soit un peu bricoleur, un peu lectricien, un peu mcanicien, ou un peu des trois.
Je l’ai amorti ds sa premire utilisation, il m’a permis d’viter de devoir casser une dalle. a devient vite un outil de base.
Handy gadge
A really handy gadget to have around with a multitide of uses. Generally I use these for checking cavity walls and between floorboards and ceilings. I don’t do plumbing but it would be useful for checking drains and traps as well.
The cable is rigid enough to push through fibreglass and has enough flexibility, over a short distance, to usually see enough. The cable is over 16ft long but I doubt you’d ever use it over that distance unless you were in an unobstructed pipe or something similar as manipulating the camera becomes more dificult as the length of cable increases.
The image screen is quite clear and the 2x maginification is useful though it would be a lot better if you had an sd card to be able to save images to for further studying. Being able to dim the camera is a good option for checking heating vents to stop the glare reflecting back of the metal housing.
Overall a very useful gadget to have in your tool kit.
Good endoscope for your DIY and other needs.
This endoscope arrived nicely packaged.
It was ready to operate (fully charged) straight out of the box and after reading the instruction manual, it was easy to operate.
The 5m length of cable is great and enables you to look from a good distance.
Both the camera itself and the cable look and feel good quality. It is very well made.
The image that appears on screen was of good quality and clear. Although you can rotate the camera and zoom in and out, you do need to be quite close to the object with the lens in order to get a clear image.
For my husbands needs, looking into cavity walls, the endoscope works very well and gives decent images.
He was unable to save or record any of the images- however this is not a big issue for him.
If you are looking for such a tool for your DIY, we would really recommend this endoscope.
Useful bit of ki
I’ve found the endoscope really useful. It’s really easy to use straight out of the box; it arrived charged, and you literally press the on button and off you go.
The picture is really clear, and the light is very bright so you can see some way with it. The cable is also really long.
There were a couple of issues; the camera is fixed, so as the cables twists, so does the picture which can make it difficult to orient. The cable is quite stiff, but not quite enough to be able to manipulate the camera when you’ve got >1m down the drain. I’ve tried to use it to see a blockage in our low profile shower drain but have found this really difficult as the camera snags and I can’t get the leverage with the cable to get it past the ridge in the plumbing. With the cable being so long, it would also benefit from a reel to keep it on and reel it in and out so it doesn’t get tangled, as it’s quite unweildy. Other than this, fantastic little piece of kit. Although I didn’t have much luck with the drain, it’s proved really handy for finding retrieving all the cat toys under the aquariums, and also became a cat toy at one point because he loved the light.
Good quality.
Charged and ready to go straight out of the box. There isn’t even a need to read the instructions, just switch it on, its that easy to use. The picture quality is not HD and could be greatly improved if Im honest. The light emitted from the camera is good enough to light up the subject, if the subject is in a dark area. One flaw is there is no way to save the images shown. You cant save to a card, app or send to a phone. So its just for looking. A nice little entry endoscope that may be able to help you out once in a while. The screen is bright and decent enpugh quality. The actual camera and kit is not too bad of quality and will last as long as its looked after. The length of cable for the camera is of good length and should cover most needs of reach.
Impressive, plug and play
I’ve had a few of these types of devices in the past, I remember paying a small fortune for one many years ago. Times have moved on however and these are getting cheap, I wasn’t sure what to expect from this one for that very reason – I must say though, this is an incredible bit of kit for the price. Although the build is very lightweight and plasticy, the performance is faultless. It shows a very clear, sharp picture (even I low light), has a light on it when needed and is super simple to use. It’s very much plug and play with zero setup required. I used mine to help me navigate and feed cabling behind my walls, this would have taken me hours without this little device. So for that, it’s been worth it’s weight in gold. Would recommend
Great bit of ki
This is a very well made Endoscope Camera, that is very good value for money.
The screen is bright & good quality to be able to see anything that you need. You are ablt to zoom in & out as well change the brightness using the buttons next to the screen.
It works straight out the box & quick to charge. As you’d expect with this sort of tool it’s well made & protected so should survive any drops.
The Endoscope cable it long & easy to maneuver & bend to how you need.
At this price point it does everything you’d expect & does them well.
Detailed picture
As a mechanic sometimes it is necessary to look inside engines mostly through the spark plug opening. Behind the dash board is another area were an endoscope comes in handy but by far the most use is when a nut or similar is accidently dropped into a hard to reach area (engine bay) and just cannot be seen. For retrieving such items this endoscope really comes into its own by helping to locate the item. Even better is taping a magnet to the end of the inspection rod and it is often possible to grab the lost item.
This has got us out of tight spots and this endoscope from Depstech with it long semi ridged inspection probe will really be useful. The big 4.3-inch IPS screen shows the inspected area in clear detail better distinguishing between a rusty/dirty engine and a rusty/dirty nut.
To me it is an added bonus to have a dedicated screen rather than trying to connect a screenless model to a mobile phone.

Great value.
These used to cost so much more not that long ago. This is cheap and cheerful but works really well. Very simple to use with its own dedicated screen essentially you just turn on and go. Perfect for car engines, but also anything like drains etc when you want to get a look at an issue and would not normally be able to get there. The light is nice and bright and illuminates the subject nicely. Overall very happy with it.
Brilliant budget endoscope
Great quality endoscope, lovely fair size really clear screen.
The camera provides a clear picture with a close focus range, and the dimmable light provides plenty of illumination when you’re moving it around a confined, dark area, in a pipe etc.
The little hook attachment is a nice addition so you can pull things out of pipes.
Well made bit of kit for inspection purposes, shame it doesn’t record or take stills so they can be sent off for advice, but overall a decent bit of kit.
Nice entry level endoscope
This is a nice entry level endoscope. It’s very easy to use, with simple, obvious controls for rotating the picture, zooming in and out and controlling the light.
It doesn’t have any bells and whistles though. There’s no way to save the video, or connect it to PC or app. It’s just a camera with a live video feed.
The cable is strong and maintains its shape well, and everything seems well constructed. It allows you to see into places where you just couldn’t get without a tiny camera, and I’ve already found it useful around the house. But I’ve also found it works great as a simple microscope for electronics work / soldering. With the main unit attached to a tripod via a mobile phone holder, I can position the camera almost anywhere to help with soldering. Obviously, there are proper microscopes available for this kind of work, but I like the flexibility of this device and how it lets me use it in interesting ways.
GReat DIY inspection camera system.
Worked out of the box, the 5m endoscope cable outperformed my previous 1m system and the viewing screen was bright and worked well in light and dark conditions.
Powered by internal rechargeable battery with a supplied USB C cable, it charges quite quickly and has some simple controls on the RH of the screen to make some sense of the image- basically it will allow the image to flip- one problem of such systems is that the words Up/Down mean nothing to a camera and so rotating the cable of the image is one of the only ways to get a better view. Also magnification up to 2x and LED brightness can be increased to improve the image.
A disappointment is that the focal range of the lens is relatively short, a few inches or so for crisp clarity, but it does drop off quite quickly after that, so great for DIY and local behind wall as house plumbing, but will struggle in a challenging industrial environment as simply not designed to have so much versatility. One disadvantage is that images cannot be grabbed form the camera, it won’t save the image or record it, which often does make if difficult if you are manoeuvring hte lens and seeing the image at the same time.
The camera cable is permanently fixed to the screen body and is of good manufacture, no cosmetic marks, defects of poor joints were noted, the charging port is covered by a rubber cover, but I am not sure if the body is actually waterproof to any degree.
When the image is in focus, the screen image is very good, although I would not suggest they are of the very high clarity seen in the photos of the description, they are still of high quality and more that suitable for most home uses. Perhaps one change I would suggest is to bundle a semi-rigid case for storage and the current box and vac-form tray does make tool-box carry a bit harder- however its’ a good endoscope of better performance than ones used to be bundled for use on a smart phone
Surprisingly useful for a variety of things, well made, bright screen, very handy
This is a great little endoscope, ideal for checking hard to reach spaces. The screen is nice and bright and the camera is easy to operate, we have been using it to check under the fridge for lost treasure and I used it for checking part of my engine. Very simple device, the only thing that would make it better in my opinion is the ability to take a picture, but in reality thats just a nice to have feature. Overall very happy with the device.
Great tool for viewing inaccessible places - simple to use.
This endoscope inspection camera comes with a dedicated 4.3″ colour monitor to display the 1920×1080 images (as opposed to the ones that use a mobile phone), so it doesn’t need wi-fii, a mobile or App to use it. It is limited however to just viewing, as the unit can’t take video or images as is common with mobile attached devices.
It has a 5m/16′ semi-rigid cable carrying the camera lens, so it keeps its shape when you bend it, but it does make it a bit stiff for travelling around tight corners. The lens is surrounded by LEDs to illuminate the inspection area. It’s IP67 water and dust proof (so good for around 30 minutes emersion in shallow water). There is a hook and magnet attachment that can be fixed to the camera to help retrieve small objects with the aid of the camera, but I’m not convinced as to the effectiveness of these as they would easily fall off with too much weight applied to them.
You can flip and rotate the image on the viewer, change the magnification (up to 2x) and the LED brightness in 4 steps using dedicated buttons. The battery charge is also shown on the screen. The optimal focal range for the lens is 3cm-8cm (1.18-3.15 inches), so images are best when within this distance from the lens otherwise the focus isn’t so sharp.
It’s charged with an included USB-C cable and has a 2 year guarantee.
This is really useful for exploring inaccessible places or retrieving dropped objects
Being a bit of a tool junkie, I already have an endoscope that attaches to my phone, but having a dedicated unit is sometimes more convenient. This unit is so intuitive and easy to use and it has a pretty decent image quality. These things are so useful to see things like drains, brick cavities, stud walls and ceilings, under floorboards. I use it all the time now. This one worked straight out of the box and was fully charged. The image quality is good and the built in viewing monitor makes it great for just grabbing and using.
The only thing I found awkward is that the cable is VERY stiff and really stays where you put it. It’s also very long, which is great for accessing those inaccessible places, but for short distances, the big coil of stiff cable can get in the way and make handling the whole thing a bit cumbersome. But that’s the price you pay for a long cable.
Overall I’m really happy with it and I think it works really well.
Such a handy device to have! Does exactly what it says it should!
What a great device! Could come in very handy in a number of circumstances.
No setup required works straight out the box. Its as simple as turning it on. Its precharged at 100% but theres a USB cable also provided for when recharging is required.
My wife was complaining of a sore throat so my first test was popping the camera in her open mouth. Sure enough the light on the end of the camera showed (in pretty graphic detail her poorly throat) The picture quality, although far from HD is good enough to see things very clearly.. designed to see things in details close up means footage of things from a distance in a room is a little blurry and not great. But that isnt this devices purpose.
Theres a huge amount of length on the cable end (I don’t think ill ever find myself needing to use all of it) but its got a good amount of strength to it while at the same time, easy enough to bend and flexi into positions you need it.
The screen has a number of options on there you can zoom in and out at the touch of a button and adjust the brightness of the light.. you can even flip it 180 all while being 100% waterproof.
Ill be primarily be using this to help me see in the cars engine compartment for when Im doing work and I can see it being useful for checking the outside of my house in the places I cant quite see. What an excellent little device highly recommended if you have a requirement for something like this!
Decent quality for the price
I have one endoscope which costs just 6 more than this one, without any discount applied. And I must say that there is the difference in features.
The Depstech has only one lens, it has 2 attachments, not 3, no memory card so can’t take and store photos and videos and also the snake cable is 5m long, not 10m like in my previous endoscope.
The build quality is really good. The endoscope is strong, made of thick and durable plastic. It should last. The screen is large and the picture is in colour. The quality of image is good, can’t complain.
There is light with the camera lens which we can adjust or switch off. Also zoom is included but not that good as it looses on photo quality.
The working time is the same as charging time which is 3h.
This product recharges via usb C cable, included.
All in all, it’s very good quality endoscope which is worth 35 with currently on site discount. It does good job and its easy to use.
I can recommend it.
