Reviews
- Written by Zachary1/25/2024It's not just a tool; it's a game-changer
I recently purchased the Camtronics MiniFlex Inspection Camera from your company, and after a season of using it I am compelled to share my outstanding experience with both the product and the customer service I received.
Firstly, the MiniFlex Inspection Camera has exceeded my expectations. It's not just a tool; it's a game-changer. Tasks that used to take me two hours can now be completed in mere minutes, thanks to the efficiency and precision of this camera. Its performance is exactly as advertised, and it has become an indispensable asset in my toolkit. I also want to extend my deepest gratitude to Josh, who assisted me during the purchase. His approach was nothing short of stellar. His considerate nature, extensive product knowledge, and patience made all the difference. I was initially unsure about the best product for my needs, especially after having spent thousands on other products that fell short. Josh's guidance was instrumental in helping me find exactly what I needed. My experience with your product and team, especially Josh, has been remarkable. I am thoroughly impressed and satisfied. I rate this experience 5 stars and 10/10 without hesitation.
Thank you for your commitment to quality products and exceptional customer service. I look forward to future purchases and will certainly recommend your company to my peers. Best regards, - Written by Ron 11/23/2024Awesome Camera
Camera is awesome! We knocked out 28 direct vent fireplaces in 2 hours.
Also ran it down a couple toilets as well.
Great purchase - Written by Scott 1/31/2021«Great performance!»
I was having an issue inspecting galvanized lines in a house. I had a Ridgid microDrain camera but we were only able to do about 50% of our inspections. So after reviewing some information and videos on Miniflex plumbing camera, we arranged a demo.
The sink in the bathroom we snaked and tried out, the Ridgid unit did not go into the drain, the Miniflex went right in. In the Tub, plastic line into galvanized, Miniflex went in both ways to 7, again the Ridgid did not.
In the Kitchen both units worked fine in that drain, which was more plastic piping. Both units performed the same. In direct comparison I liked the software on the Ridgid more, but obviously, the Miniflex plumbing camera is a way better performer, especially in houses with galvanized lines. - Written by DS 11/17/2020«It's great equipment!»
My shower drain was having clogging problems 3 to 4 times per year and each time I had to call plumbers as well as use drain snake myself to clear the clog. Finally, I wanted to check the drainpipe and see if anything inside the pipe was causing the clog. I called plumbing companies and was told that there is not a camera available that can move through a 1.5-inch pipe and the P-Trap. I decided to check online and found MiniFlex plumbing camera specifically designed for 1-1/4" drainpipes or bigger.
I called the Fiberscope company located in Woburn MA and after talking to Terry I rented the MiniFlex and a locator which they shipped to my address in Mercer Island Washington.
I used the camera and the locator the same day after receiving it. It was very easy to push the cable with the camera through the drainpipe and especially the P-Trap. The plumbing camera's small monitor was very clearly showing the camera moving forward until it could not move further. I saw something inside the pipe that should not have been there. The locator was also very helpful locating the camera inside the wall on the lower floor laundry room.
Now I will involve a professional to open the wall with the problem pipe and replace the section of the pipe that had foreign object inside.
MiniFlex camera was very helpful in finding the problem which we had for many years.
This is the only plumbing camera on the market that can get through the shower drainpipe and with ease! - Steve KokkinidisThis camera is worth the money for the size and what it's capable of doing. Today, I inspected a 4-inch cast iron drain that was pretty dirty. The camera shocked me. I was able to see the pipe perfectly. I never expected that this tiny camera can see that clearly inside a 4-inch cast iron pipe. The only thing that's missing is a button that can change angles since there is no auto-level feature on this camera. Other than that it was easy to push and easy to carry. I'm very impressed with what it can do.Kills the rigid see snake by far.

Harkins Builders, IncI would like to thank Terry Peristerakis at Fiberscope.net for helping us solve a very unique situation on a project we recently completed. We were faced with a situation where we needed to inspect the plumbing piping coming from the stack to the toilet. We entertained a number of potential ways to do this (pulling 400 toilets, Cutting 400 holes in the ceiling) none were viable options or cost effective. We decided that running a camera down thru the toilet would be the best solution to the problem. We tried 2 different plumbing cameras made by Ridgid and 2 Borescopes one made by Milwaukee and one by Ridgid. None of them were able to make the tight bends in the toilet to get to the piping below. That's when we turned to Strahl and their Miniflex Camtronics camera with its very flexible camera head. Terry was very confident it could do the job and worked with us getting a Demo model to us to make sure it would work. In trials it easily slipped down thru the toilet and into the stack without any difficulty. We are so pleased with this camera solution that we purchased one and had it shipped to our location to complete the 400 inspections. We highly recommend this plumbing camera anytime you need to make very tight bends and turns. It also has the ability to take video and pictures to help with our documentation of the inspections as they were done. - Henry SanchezI rented a mini-flex plumbing camera and locator to find over a dozen broken 1" electrical conduits in a large swimming pool build. First of all the customer service, delivery, etc. were amazing. These guys go above and beyond to take care of you. The unit was freaking amazing. Really need to purchase one of these. Would use these guys again with my eyes closed.
With many options to choose from you may find it hard to decide which is best suited for your needs. Tell us about your application and we will recommend the right tool to do the job without spending a fortune!
Questions and Answers
- Does the MiniFlex have an articulation angle camera? Is the display the DVR image
Thank youHi Edi, No, the Miniflex has no articulation, but the viewing angle is quite wide - 105°. Also, the camera head is maneuverable enough to navigate tight bends or turns in 1¼" pipes or bigger. This plumbing camera can record video of your inspection. Please let us know if you have further questions or concerns. 800-239-9934 - Can this be configured with a smaller diameter camera? Maybe 5/8" or 1/2"?Hi Michael, No, this particular camera has only one smallest option for a camera head - 3/4", and there is no way to make it smaller. However, we have different cameras with options with a 1/4" camera head. We will follow up with you on that by email. 800-239-9934
- What pipe sizes can the MiniFlex inspect?The MiniFlex is designed for smaller pipes from 1¼ inches (32 mm) to 3 inches (76 mm) in diameter, making it ideal for residential plumbing, HVAC ducts, and electrical conduit.
- Can the MiniFlex work in 1½-inch old cast iron pipes?Yes. The 19 mm (0.75 in) camera head fits inside 1½-inch (38 mm) cast iron lines, including those with corrosion or channel rot. Performance in such conditions may reduce push distance, but the flexible cable and small head can navigate multiple bends. Check out our customers' reviews above to see where and how they have successfully used the camera.
- Does the MiniFlex have a built-in transmitter sonde? Is it compatible with RIDGID locators?The MiniFlex has a built-in 512 Hz sonde by default. This frequency is compatible with most standard pipe locators, including many RIDGID SeekTech models, as long as they support 512 Hz.
- Do you offer a finance option?Yes. Contact us, and our sales team will respond with detailed information about financing your camera. The option is currently available for the USA customers only.
- Can I try before I buy?We offer a special program that allows you to rent the MiniFlex and use it in real-world conditions. If you decide to purchase the MiniFlex after your rental, we will subtract the rental cost from the purchase price of the system.

The System Full Description
The innovative plumbing camera, MiniFlex 19, features extreme portability and maneuverability.
The MiniFlex 19 all-in-one drain inspection camera is one of the best, and the only, devices you will ever need for small-diameter pipe inspections. These systems are ideal for plumbers, pool and spa professionals, and pipefitters. The special patented flexi-tube neck behind the camera head makes MiniFlex extremely flexible and capable of navigating multiple 90-degree bends in 1½" pipes and P-trap in 1¼" (32mm) PVC pipes*. The MiniFlex 19 camera from Camtronics can be used to inspect kitchen and bathroom drains, pools, spas, hot tubs, showers, sprinkler lines, sewer lines, and narrow-diameter industrial machinery that other units cannot navigate. At this time, there are two models of MiniFlex Plumbing Cameras available, one with a 19mm(0.75") straight-viewing camera head and a 5.5mm (0.22") flexible push cable for inspecting pipes from 1¼" to 3" and the other version, MiniFlex 36, with a 36mm(1.5") self-leveling camera head and a 6.7mm(0.26") push cable for pipes from 2" to 6". Both of these units share the same control hub and have a similar design.
The MiniFlex camera head is made of stainless steel and sealed tightly, with a waterproof rating of 3 bars and submersion to 100ft. The scratch-proof sapphire lenses protect the camera chip from damage, and a 512Hz sonde beacon enables precise location of the camera head behind walls, under the floor, and inside pipes. The combination push cable connects to the camera head with a patented flexi-rubber neck. This feature makes the MiniFlex plumbing camera stand out among other plumbing cameras, allowing it to pass multiple bends and elbows. The flexible cable is perfect for tight corners and traps; however, as field tests have shown, it is rigid enough to perform in long, mid-diameter pipes, making it an all-in-one solution. The MiniFlex plumbing camera set from Camtronics, while extremely portable, is also entirely self-contained. It is easy and quick to carry, set up anywhere, and store the plumbing camera thanks to its compact camera system and lightweight, around 10kg (22lbs).
During inspections, the job of capturing images and videos, overlaying text, and playing them back on-site is made easy with the touchscreen monitor and in-reach controls. The sunshade protects the 8" touchscreen display and monitor that features video output, audio, and footage recording, and an SD card insert for memory. An on-screen footage counter tracks the amount of unspooled cable and displays it, allowing you to estimate how long the pipe is or where pipe damage occurred. With a rechargeable battery life of up to 7 hours, this compact pipe inspection camera allows remote work to be done without headaches. This plumbing camera is sold as a complete, all-in-one set with everything that you need included and ready to go. The only thing to add for a full package is an optional sonde locator to locate the camera head.
*Can be limited by pipe diameter and condition.
