Inspection Cameras Any Good?

[LastManOnline]

The only problem is my oldish Android phone doesn't support OTG and UVC (whatever they are!!)

Exactly the same here. Camera now sitting in the box it was delivered in. I would have thought the seller might have alerted potential buyers to the issue

I've recently bought a USB camera , it's bit smaller but the flex is over 3 mtrs, longer ones are available.
The only problem is my oldish Android phone doesn't support OTG and UVC (whatever they are!!) so I use it with a laptop.

I recall I had a similar problem when trying to use the recommended app for the camera so I did a search on the play store for camera apps and tried a few till I found one that worked with the camera

I have taped this camera to the end of my rods and being able to see the hook on the end while grabbing the fish wire has helped a lot over the time I've had it.
Its got a very long reach so can be taped onto a few meters of rod.The picture on the phone is very good and the led lights help locate the wiring no problem.Highly recommeded.Fairly cheap seals the deal for me

That's the one I have too, except mine is black not yellow!
Cheap enough to not care that it isn't used much. Good enough that when I want a camera it usually saves the day.
I tape mine onto rods too.
