I just read your post about choosing the right Hathorn camera for pipe inspections and it’s really helpful to see the different options laid out in a way that makes sense whether you’re new to inspection cameras or have been doing this work for a while — breaking down the H2 for straightforward real-time viewing, the H7 for those who want recording and Wi-Fi streaming, and the Wi-Fi cameras that let you stream straight to a phone or tablet gives readers a clear picture of what each system is best suited for depending on how they plan to use it, and knowing that these systems are designed to be durable and portable makes the decision feel less intimidating.

I like that it still runs on the same battery setup as the H2, so switching between models wouldn’t be a hassle. The portability kind of reminds me of when I play Geometry Dash Lite on my phone — simple to pick up, no cords, just focus and precision when you need it most.
