Bought a cheap endoscope today

I had been eyeing off the Aldi endoscope for $90 dollars.
After reading this thread I decided I would buy one.
The Aldi had one going and I could play with it in the shop.
It works OK , but it not very flexible.
I checked out the Jaycar one for $25 dollars which plugs into a USB port of a computer.
I purchased it and I am very pleased for the money.
Using the computer screen gives better and larger picture.
The scope is a lot more flexible that the Aldi one and using the USB as the power supply means no flat battery problems etc when not used often, all at quarter the price.
Save video or pics straight into the computer without saving on to a card.
has 4 adjustable LEDs.
There is always a lap top at home or work.....brillant.

Better go and clean the wax out of my ears and clean my teeth now........:p

Yep I'm pleased with the Jcar one, the only thing is using a laptop outside I find with the lcd screens the bright daylight makes it hard to see clearly, but you can get that an LCD screen.

I bought the aldi one for work use it every week for inspecting scrubber tank floats and looking for oil leaks etc on underground coal machinery it has made my job a lot easier and quicker doing weekly services.

Ive got a knee that needs looking at.....
