Ebays finest chinese tat :D

5.5mm head including dimmable LED's and mini camera.
1 mtr of wire so suitable for most guns over 5.5mm bore and less than 1 mtr barrel length.

Allegedly viewable on a smartphone running android but not had success with that yet but when I do will be ideal for in the field.

6 quid including postage :good:

Plugged it into the laptop for a test and frightened the s**t out of myself by looking up my nose, mouth and ears. If you get one do not do this!!!! Some things you just aint meant to see!! wtf

Did you need an app for the phone to get it to work?

I have one and although it works the resolution and camera angle is not so good.

I use the camerafi app for my android phone and tablet. It works with the chinese mini borescopes and small web cams.

This came with a little attachment to swing the view 45 degrees but havent tried that yet so not sure how good it is.
