WANTED Small pen light for bore inspection

[bisleyjohn]

I bought a cheap endoscope (less than ten quid) from a well known auction site.

6mm camera produces decent views of the bores.

this is the inside of my .577

It has wifi capability so I can view it on my smartphone as well as USB

Greetings all

Looking for a small diameter bright pen light that I can drop down the bore of a muzzleloader to inspect the bore. Would like to have one that will work down to at least 45 caliber barrels.

I bought one a while back at an auto parts store that was ideal. That is not working well now, and they store no longer carries those. Checked ebay and nothing there small enough.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks, have a blessed Christmas.

I have a scope I got on Amazon that links with blue tooth to your smartphone. Works great.

This is the best thing I've found to work. Stick the LED just down inside the barrel and look past it. Works fine on .54 though .36 cal.

And how much does all that cost?

I drop a nickel plated .38 Special case base side up and shine a light down the bore to examine my .451 Whitworth.

You beat me to it although I use a .45ACP.

Carney Pace, that's what I did, too. I prefer white light for looking down the bores. I ordered some and they work great.

The LED fishing bobber lights come in green or red. I haven't seen them in clear but the green works pretty well and would probably work down to 32 caliber. They are refills for a bobber. They even have an on/off switch. They run about $3-$4 at walmart or Academy sports.

I’ve used the green chem light lures. Very small work quite well.

I paid around $35 for mine. Wi-Fi and Blue Tooth capable so it hooks up to my phone or tablet.

This will plug into your phone and give you a much better idea about what is going on in your bore.

I am on my second one, the first one quit after 5 or 6 years, it took really good pictures, my current one is OK but but quite as good. The first picture is from my old one, the second from my new one.
