Title: Broken gutter camera
Post by: Richy L on January 27, 2014, 04:33:54 pm
My gutter vac camera has broken.
What should I get. I dont want to get another cheap Chinese thing, but I don't want to pay £500 or so. What do you use?

I am told that these are the ones to buy!

http://gopro.com/

Chris Scott may have more info than me on this?

The sad fact is mate "pay cheap"   "buy twice" deffo applies in this case.  You get what you pay for!

I was interested in a GoPro - But there seems to be a 4 second delay from camera to monitor... Don't think that would be any good for gutter cleaning?

A second maybe.

We use one, and it works very well.

I use iphone, and attach it to pole with a workout strap type holder.

That's a good idea concept. I'll be doing that!

I'm going to pop into pc world today and buy a gopro 3. Dogcam suggested the gopro3+ for £360 but the gopro3 is £200 from pc world. That looks plenty good enough for what I am after.

I'll prob get the insurance as well Chris as long as it's not stupidly priced. I imagine they are pretty robust, especially in the waterproof housing.

Thanks guys.
