Worth the $80 or so? Might be of some use when I change the power steering pump and return line on the SVT.

Yea, but since it's a sale weekend check HF as well. My buddy who does fire alarms has the Milwaukee and HF inspection cameras, and the HF performs much better in low light conditions, like inside a wall, or inside a truck frame.

HF cameras SUCK BUTT and break in hours, not days. I grabbed a Rigid on sale from HD and it has been working great for over a year so far. It is lighted and has accessories to let you pick up stuff, worth the extra $19 over an $80 unit.

Oops is it too late to cancel the HF order? oh well we'll see.

Bought the Rigid. The Home Depot is closer for pick up.

I've have a HF camera, that sees fairly regular use, for almost 5 years with no problems. If I had to guess, they are all made in the same Chinese factory.

Personally, I've had a HF scope camera for years, and it's worked well and reliably.

But today, with the much cheaper scopes and a smart phone, I'd go that route instead. In fact, I did. Cost about $10 through Amazon, and included free shipping.

Bonus, this one is small enough to snake down a spark plug hole for a look see. The HF unit is far too big for that.

These are cheap! Don't know anything about them.
