What Brand of Videoscope???

You could try a make of video probe i have just aquired from a company called sealey.

it retail for approx £275 (11mm dia x 900mm length) it does depend on how nuch you want to spend as we also have a video borescope that cost £1700 (Henke Sasse Wolf) check out both makes on the net and see what you think, good luck.

Gidday scot.r111,

I use the Rigid See Snake 100m length camera system (video) {put down bore holes, up drill holes etc} and the Rigid See Snake Micro.

Both good systems. Very,very hardy. I work in a mine and we treat ours like crap.

Thanks Geomech,

I'll take a look at the brand.

From now until August 7, if you demo a locator, you can get a FREE seesnake. Search for RIDGID on the GlobalSpec site and you'll find info.

Depending upon the type of gearbox you need either 3.9mm or 6 mm diameter scopes, a Snake Eye would be totally unsuitable.

Thanks,

Hadn't had time to research this brand yet. You're right I need a 6mm scope. A 3.9 would cover more eventualities but the 6 is more robust and the light is better (so I am informed by Olympus). I am having a demonstration tomorrow on the Iplex MX-R and Iplex FX-R. The Everest units come in way to much!

thanks for the input

Well that is a matter of opinion ! and don't be surprised by the price comparison.

Both manufacturers make very good kit, but it is not cheap, hence why we are in business
