The SeeSnake MicroReel APX with TruSense Camera is built for technicians who need dependable imaging technology in a small, portable footprint. This reel bridges the gap between everyday service inspections and professional-grade diagnostics by combining advanced imaging capabilities with rugged construction.

The standout feature of the APX system is its TruSense HDR sensor. The HDR sensor increases dynamic range, delivering superior contrast, clarity, and detail—even in pipes with dramatic lighting changes. Shadows, glare, and dark sections are minimized for a more consistent viewing experience. For service professionals offering reports to clients, higher image quality leads to better documentation and clearer communication.

The auto-image rotation technology is another key benefit. This feature keeps the camera angle automatically upright without needing motors or mechanical rotation. In summary, the key benefit is a more intuitive inspection experience, with less time spent reorienting footage and more time focused on identifying issues inside the pipe.

The APX is engineered for real-world efficiency. The mid-flex push cable offers excellent maneuverability through tight bends and smaller pipes, making it ideal for residential drain lines, bathroom plumbing, and kitchen laterals. With a reach of 100 feet (30 m), it handles most everyday inspections with ease.

Durability is central to its design. The hardened stainless steel camera head protects internal components during repeated use in challenging environments. Combined with robust LED lighting and a reliable spring assembly, the MicroReel APX is built to withstand demanding jobsite conditions.

This product is ideal for plumbers, drain cleaning specialists, maintenance crews, and home inspectors who need a dependable tool that performs consistently across different job types. Its compact design—half the size of larger systems—makes it easy to store, transport, and deploy, saving valuable truck space and reducing operator fatigue.

Use Cases

• Residential Drain & Sewer Inspections: Perfect for bathroom and kitchen lines, toilet drains, and small-diameter laterals.
• Maintenance & Repair Verification: Capture before-and-after visuals for customer reports or preventative maintenance programs.
• Tight-Turn Navigation: Ideal for older homes with sharp bends or aging plumbing systems.
• Trace & Locate Lines: Use the 512 Hz sonde to pinpoint camera position during underground locating.
• Commercial Quick-Access Inspections: Lightweight build makes it ideal for rapid diagnostic checks in office buildings, retail spaces, and tight mechanical rooms.
