Q:Autel
A:Autel MV400-5.5 MaxiVideo Digital Inspection Camera with 5.5mm Camera
-----------------------------------
Q:What type and style of battery does it take? Replaceable?
A:It's a built in battery (rechargeable with a long life, many hours), but I don't think it is easily replaceable. This is a low power usage system as it only has two LED lights. The camera on this model is very small with limited lighting, if you don't need it go up to the next size (8mm or the 17mm). The depth of field on the camera is very limited which is not helped with the limited lighting.
-----------------------------------

A:they are not magnetic, but they are metallic which means they can be picked up by the magnet

A:1.6kg
-----------------------------------

Q:Can this videoscope be used as a borescope for gun barrels? Would the 5.5mm head fit inside a 6mm rifle bore and provide a clear picture?
A:I believe it would. I used it going through a glow plug bore, slightly under 6mm, to see into the engine cylinder head. The head of the camera rotates, so I think you would be able to see ok. I am sorry I do not have a gun to try it on to be more helpful.
