If this is the case and it’s not written on the box, nor in the instructions manual or advised before I purchased the camera. If so what is the maximum or optimum length the camera can be push into the drain? What is your recommended of use and if so, why is equipped with a 15m cable? I’m more than happy to supply you all the videos of the failed drain inspection so you can see for yourself.
What they don’t tell you in the video is the limitations of the camera. Its operation to inspect 40mm pipe, is limited to 3m and 3 90deg bend. This is because the cable is to flexible and it not able to drive the camera head forward.

Hi there! Thanks for your comment. The minCord 5 with KK13 and push-pull cable is not designed for longer push distances, but for very tight radii, so the cable is very flexible. For longer distances and / or a larger number of bends, we recommend the minCord XL or mC15 with 5.6 mm push-rod cable and the KK18 camera head.
If that was the case, then why is it equipped with a 15m cable? To be fair, I would fully agree that an inspection of 5-10m would be a good result, but 3m is not. And the fact that it can’t pass around more that 3 tight 90 deg bends is another failure. The major issue with your camera is the flexibility of the camera cable. Friction overcome it and the cable turns into a spring.
I’m happy to send you lol the videos of failed inspection, so you may full grasp the failure of your camera. In addition, the company that sold the item to me, never mentioned a distance restriction, nor is there a not on the box informing users of it limitation, as you put it.
