Very Handy Tool December 29, 2008
I borrowed this tool from a friend to snake an HDMI cable for a flat screen t.v. in a finished basement. It took some time but we were able to run a 32' cable through existing outlets without having to cut sheet rock. There is no way we could have done it without this tool. The detail on the screen is amazing. It does take some getting used to the screen orientation since the snake does twist around in the wall cavity as you work it along. As others have said and I'll confirm, just twist the base until the camera's pointing the direction you want. The included magnet did snag on insulation so we taped on a sturdier one and it worked fine.

I own a few of these and as great as they are there are two newer models of this unit which blow this one away. There is a second generation of this unit which is much improved and a new micro Explorer which takes still pictures and videos of your inspections.

Great for tracing wiring, finding fasteners, "aiming" tools, and locating leaks in engine bays and up under dashboards. Beats the old mirror-on-a-stick by a country mile.
Great tool, just not for me. Wish unit had a trigger-claw. October 8, 2008

This product worked very well for me. I did not have any upside down image problems that other people are talking about. I think you just have to turn the snake-cable 180 degrees and that will solve this issue.
I guess some of the minor things I would say in the negative about my experience with this item would be:
--Once you have the snake inside a wall, it is hard to get it to go where you want to see something specific. You can only control direction by clumsily twisting and turning the handle to look around. I guess adding directional controls would make the unit more expensive.
--I would definitely like to have the ability to grab onto things by adding a trigger to the handle so I can grab onto something which has fallen into a wall or small hole. I lost a wood file inside my wall which fell down to the 1st floor. I can now see the file with the Snake, but cannot grab it. I guess I at least know exactly where the tool is now, DOH!
If you do inspection work into small places this tool is a very good product. I guess not being a handyman by trade, just a homeowner, I can't see myself using this tool more than a few times.
Not perfect, but a very useful tool. September 24, 2008

I'd been eying inspection cameras for some time and finally pulled the trigger on this model as the price was reasonable and, as somebody else has already mentioned, it included a set of small attachments. So far, I've used it while retro-fitting an exhaust fan into a bathroom that previously had none. Suffice it to say that there is no way I could have fished all the required Romex without this device. The hook attachment is indispensable for such a task. I was able to catch my fish tape at a 90 degree angle through a floor joist and double top plate even with a fair amount of existing Romex to get in the way.
The camera can become a little shaky and difficult to maneuver when the gooseneck is fully extended, but I can't see how this could be avoided without adding expensive directional control. My biggest disappointment was the mirror, as the lights at the end of the camera shine directly into it, making it completely useless in any environment that is not already lit. (...and when would you ever be using an inspection camera in a space that was lit?) I did not experience an inverted image as many people have previously complained.
If you find yourself fishing power or data lines through existing wall cavities with any degree of regularity, this tool is well worth the price.
