With engine bays becoming ever more compact, a portable inspection camera can be a huge asset to any garage. Laser Tools offers an effective and great value solution in the shape of its 7604 high performance endoscope which comes with a high resolution five-inch colour LCD display. 

This is a fully-featured instrument, ergonomically designed so that the main function buttons can be controlled with one hand. The extremely flexible, semi-rigid camera probe is 1 metre long and just 3.9mm in diameter. The inspection camera has numerous applications, especially in the workshop for inspecting engines and engine components. For example, the very narrow diameter of the camera probe makes it ideal for inspecting combustion chambers in diesel-engine vehicles using the glow plug aperture for access. Or it allows a technician to read a part number of a component buried in the engine-bay without dismantling. 

The instrument is fitted with an 8GB Micro SD card which enables still images and video recordings to be saved and transferred to a PC or laptop via the supplied USB lead or by removing the Micro SD card. It also features a four-LED torch and the button controls are back-lit. The tip of the camera probe features six LEDs with three brightness settings for use in dark environments. The internal battery is charged via the USB lead. 

Laser says that this new inspection camera is a game-changer for the professional technician with its super-narrow camera probe, high-resolution display and video and still photography capabilities. 

It is now available from Laser stockists. You can see the 7604 tool in action in the video below from the Tool Connection YouTube channel.
