Needs improvement

I purchased this at the end of January 2024 to expand my camera options. I also ordered an adaptor with additional slides. The slide that comes with the 40mm camera is large and will not enter a 3-inch cleanout. I inspect many older homes, and cast iron and clay are common. I was excited to put the C23 camera on the 8mm cable because I expected a thicker cable to push the smaller camera easier. That has not been my experience. On the first test run with the larger camera, the pushrod felt soft switched cameras and had problems at ~70ft in a line that had been recently repaired by lining it. I'm on my 6th or 8th inspection with the scope and the 8mm kinked. I was shocked at how easily it failed. I bought this after using a 6mm rod for two years with no issues. It was getting soft at ~80ft out and had seen lots of scrapes from rooftop inspections, and there were no kinks in the line. I did order parts to rebuild my older scope. I received a defective 6mm pushrod that I had to pay shipment both ways for them to repair. The camera would go black when fully tightened. It's been 15 business days so far, and I have not been sent a return tracking yet. Looks like I'll have to buy a new pushrod that I have little confidence in to recoup my expenses.
