Key Features
-
Four-Way Articulation
Aim the tip in four directions across the steering range; the 720° name describes articulation, not continuous tip rotation.
-
Standalone Viewing
Live view, playback and device controls run on the integrated color screen with no phone app.
-
Adjustable Lighting and Zoom
Three LED brightness levels plus off reduce shadows and glare; digital zoom enlarges captured detail for review.
-
Photo, Video and Playback
Record with the handle capture button, then review files with playback and image rotation; files save to a removable TF card.
-
Magnetic Positioning
A magnetic base attaches to a suitable ferrous surface to hold the unit while you guide the probe.

The probe is rated IP67, and the device shuts down above its temperature protection threshold.

Good to Know
Caution
- IP67 applies to the probe only, not the screen or handle; do not assume oil, fuel or solvent compatibility from the rating.
- The heat shutdown is a protection event, not a working-temperature rating; let components cool before inserting the probe.
- If the probe resists withdrawal, stop pulling, return the tip with the control and do not start the engine with the probe inserted.
Care
- Avoid coiled operation and forced bending of the hose.
- Confirm whether a TF card is supplied with your package.
