It's designed for mechanics and technicians who want the convenience of a phone-connected scope but prefer to keep a dedicated tool in the workshop rather than plugging into a personal device.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProbe diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArticulation:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2-Way 210° wheel control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScreen:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.5\" IPS LCD, 854×480 px\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eResolution:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1080p HD camera\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllumination:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 adjustable high-lumen LEDs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWaterproof:\u003c\/strong\u003e IP67 probe head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 m flexible (semi-rigid option on request)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBattery:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4000 mAh \/ approx. 4 hours continuous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecording:\u003c\/strong\u003e Photo and video to TF card (card not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e CE, FCC, RoHS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho Picks the F408B\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe F408B suits mechanics who frequently inspect larger-bore access points — diesel pre-chamber ports, industrial pipe joints, or HVAC plenum access panels — where the 8.5 mm probe's wider field of view and brighter image are worth the trade-off in access size. The 4.5\" screen is noticeably larger than the 3.5\" display on the \u003ca href=\"\/en-de\/products\/portable-endoscope-n306s\"\u003eN306S\u003c\/a\u003e, making it easier to spot hairline cracks or carbon deposits without leaning in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eF408B vs. N505 — Picking the Right Screen Size\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth are 2-way articulating, both have built-in screens, and both run independently without a phone. The key difference: the \u003ca href=\"\/en-de\/products\/auto-inspection-camera-n505\"\u003eN505\u003c\/a\u003e has a 5\" screen and 5.5 mm probe for tighter access, while the F408B has a 4.5\" screen and 8.5 mm probe for wider-bore applications with more light. If probe diameter matters most for your access point, that's the deciding factor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eIn the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF408B borescope unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarrying case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB-C charging cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUser manual (EN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Ralcam","offers":[{"title":"8.5mm (0.33in) \/ 1m (3.3ft) Flexible Cable","offer_id":41867959173216,"sku":"F408B-1M","price":168.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8.5mm (0.33in) \/ 2m (6.6ft)","offer_id":42982404456544,"sku":"F408B-2M","price":177.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/2017\/1616\/files\/ralcam-f4b-articulating-borescope-45-hd-engine-camera-9686877.jpg?v=1764742115","url":"https:\/\/www.ralcam.com\/en-de\/products\/ralcam-f408b-articulating-borescope","provider":"Ralcam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
