Today at Woot: endoscopes
When I bought my house, the sump pump was hooked up to an outside hose which went back underground. My only guess is that there's a sub-terranean drainage field there. That side of the yard is higher than the other.
Couple years ago, I replaced the sump pump as it wasn't working right, and I ran the hose to another area of the yard. Always thought it would be nice to scope the original outlet to see if in fact it was a drainage field, but didn't want to incur the fees for someone to do it.

Enter today's Woot offering: endoscopes.
You can see them here...

I ordered a pair of them, and for the price, I figure I can't go wrong. They're almost 90% off according to the $230 retail they list.

Thought I'd let others know to help spend their money.

Would make a great bore inspection tool probably.

Cool. I can do my own colonoscopy now.


I am not BIPOLAR. I don't even like bears.

That's really cool. I had no idea they were so cheap. No Apple compatibility on Woot so I ordered one from Amazon.

Which one did you get? I could REALLY use this to look in the wall stud pockets to find dead mice. I get them from time to time here in the woods.

I went to Amazon and was befuddled by all the choices.

I went with this one.

I considered getting a longer one, but I figured I'd try this out first and if it works great I'll get another if need be. 12ft will do 99% of what I'd want to do with it.

Just ordered one. This is something I could have made use of over the years. For $20, it was a no brainer.
