Heads up on those cheap fiber optic inspection scopes

I dropped about $150 on a generic one from an online auction and the image quality was so bad I couldn't trust the connector end-face readings. Ended up having to buy the proper tool anyway, which set me back way more. Anyone have a go-to brand for this that won't break the bank?

Classic case of buy nice or buy twice.

Totally... I used to get the cheap stuff and it always fell apart. Now I save up for the good version and it lasts forever.

You're so right, @averymartin, I learned that the hard way with cheap boots.
