Thames & Kosmos - Spy Labs Digital Snake Scope

See Around Corners. Look Into Tight Spaces. Go Underwater. — Thames Kosmos Spy Labs Digital Snake Scope

The Spy Labs Digital Snake Scope is a flexible digital camera on a pliable arm that lets you see into places your eyes can’t reach — around corners, under doors, into tight gaps, or underwater. The arm bends and holds any angle without snapping back, staying in position until you reposition it. A waterproof CCD camera on the tip transmits a live colour image to a 2.3-inch LCD display. An LED light on the tip can be switched on to illuminate dark spaces or turned off for low-profile observation. A sun visor reduces screen glare for outdoor use. Ages 8+.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the camera actually waterproof?

Yes — the CCD camera on the tip is waterproof and can be submerged. It’s suitable for use in rock pools, fish tanks, puddles, and similar shallow water environments. The handle unit with the LCD display is not waterproof and should be kept dry.

Does the arm stay in position or does it spring back?

The arm is pliable rather than spring-loaded — it holds whatever angle you bend it to and stays there until you deliberately reposition it. You can bend the tip around a corner, under a door gap, or into a crevice and it will hold that shape while you view the screen.

Is it a good gift?

Yes — it’s a strong gift for children aged 8 and up who enjoy spy play, investigation, or gadgets. The live camera feed and pliable arm make it genuinely functional rather than just a toy prop — children can actually see around corners and into spaces they couldn’t otherwise reach, which makes it satisfying to use beyond the first session. A good birthday gift for a child who enjoys exploring, investigating outdoors, or building a spy kit alongside other Spy Labs products.
