How to Choose an Automotive Video Borescope

                                         How to Choose an Automotive Video Borescope
Automotive video borescope  are essentially endoscopes used in the inspection of internal components. Many auto mechanics keep a borescope on hand to check for internal damage or defects in your car engine.

To perform their job correctly, automotive video borescopes need to be small, flexible, portable and provide high resolution photographs and videos.

Probe Size

The size of the probe on the borescope is important, as it needs to be large enough to facilitate a camera, but narrow enough to fit into a confined space. For example, Diesel engines have very small tubes, and can accommodate only borescopes that are 5.5mm or less in diameter.

Camera Resolution

Camera resolution is another important factor to consider when choosing a borescope. The camera on your borescope probe should be high resolution if you wish to see fine details in the images and videos it is capturing.

Screen

A good automotive video borescope will feature an IPS screen that allows you to view images and videos through the camera in real-time. You should ensure that the IPSscreen on your choice of borescope is large enough to meet your needs, without sacrificing the device’s portability.

Battery Life

Battery life is also incredibly important for automotive video borescopes. Recharging the battery on these devices can take a while, so it’s best to go for a model with a long battery life.
