    I bought this one from CPC. http://cpc.farnell.com/duratool/d01810/inspection-camera-recordable/dp/TL1451605?Ntt=TL1451605 It records video & takes pictures & stores them on a microSD card. And I also bought the 9mm camera head & a 2m extension. All in all a handy bit of kit.

    small 10.8v drivers

    Bosch for me. Killed the first driver after 2.5 years of abuse but Bosch sent a courier to collect it on a Tuesday & I had a new one back by the Friday. Can't fault the tools or the customer service or the 3 year warranty.
