It doesn't play music or let you organize playlists, but the new Gen-Eye POD and MINI-POD video inspection systems from General Pipe Cleaners combine the camera, reel and monitor all in one compact package for user convenience.

Included in the package is a 5.6-inch LCD color monitor, protected by a padded case and mounted on a flexible gooseneck that swivels to give the user the best viewing angle. The full-size Gen-Eye POD features a self-leveling camera and 200 feet of Gel-Rod for troubleshooting 3- to 10-inch drain lines. The MINI-POD carries 125 feet or 175 feet of push rod and the color mini camera is small enough to troubleshoot 2- to 4-inch drain lines.

“The all-in-one package is easier to handle, lighter and less complicated than a component inspection system,” says Marty Silverman, vice president of marketing for General Pipe Cleaners. “Most rental customers only need to see the pipe, not record it, so the pod has no recording device that could be damaged during a rental. If the customer wants to record, the unit has a video out connection to connect an external recording device.”

Other features include a picture inverter, both AC and DC power cords, LED dimmer control and 3-inch trap skid. A 512 Hz transmitter is optional with the MINI-POD.
