I bought one of these before Christmas. Bosch GOS 10.8 V-LIN Inspection Camera and now find I need the camera to be longer so I need to buy an extension for it, but am having severe trouble getting one, I can find other makes (dont know if these will work or may damage my camera) that look the same so does any one here know where I can get a 3ft extension for this from?.

they only do the one length you would need a longer fiber optic rather than an extension i would have thought but could be wrong
why not phone the supplier or bosch directly

the milwakee one is very similar[near identical] so are sharing components have a look at it but suspect its the same 4ft/1220mm
if you do have any joy please let me know as i havent yet needed more than 4ft yet but may need later

Thanks I'd not looked at the milwakee one I will have a nose in the morning at that one , I am trying to find the shop that has the two which look the same as the bosch one, I did not bookmark the site as its a site I have never used, if I can find it I give them a ring and see if they know weather one of them will work with mine, seem to remember 3ft ext was about £32 which I think is quite cheap. will post back as soon as I know for definate.
I did not think that there were fibre-optic. Aren't they just a small camera at the end connected by normal copper wire?
I can't really see ( ) the use for longer extensions as the whole thing gets difficult to use and direct then

i think you are right there it has 9 pins
not sure why i thought it was fiber optics
Yoyo, just be careful what you order if your ordering off the internet, i recently bought the dewalt inspection camera AND the extension too at a further cost of £60 thinking it would be just that.....an EXTENSION but it isn't.
I mistakenly thought you screw/clip on the 3ft extension to the camera and then screw/clip the supplied camera to that, giving you 6ft, how wrong and p***** of was i when i found the extension was only just another camera, exactly the same as the supplied one apart from it has a 9mm camera head instead of the 17mm one that comes with it, neither camera comes off so you do not join them together, i tell you dewalt got the hairdrier treatment from me that day......why advertise something as an EXTENSION when it clearly is not, its a replacement!!!
Done a bit of nosing and this is one of the ones I think may fit

and at £26 its not too dear. Will still check it out more before I get this though and see if bosch can sort me (hopefully at a reasonable cost).
crank39 thanks for the heads up on that one as a few of them I'v seen are written in a way that you would think its just an extension but its not.

I've just done some digging tonight just to satisfy myself and dewalt list the extension as DCT4103 yet that is what i bought seperately and it has a plug at one end and a 9mm camera at the other, it has not got a plug at each end so it cannot be an extension.
I gave in and ordered a Bosch one at £58 from axminster tools as I could not get a definate answer from the shop I phoned about the rigid one,
A bit expensive for a length of bendy wire, but at least I know it will fit and not cause me any issues, hope they send me the right one though.
Thanks

Probably send you a shoulder strap or something daft and argue its an extension
