Very helpful information! Thanks for another fantastic video!!

[@electronicsNmore]

Glad it was helpful! As always, thanks for watching!

My wiring kit comes with a magnetic head for the fiberglass rods. I always thought it was to retrieve metal stuff. After watching this video I decided to peek at the instruction manual and it turns out its for what you're doing in this video lol. Neat stuff!

Thanks for watching!

Brilliant! I am never disappointed with the content.

[@electronicsNmore]

Glad to hear you enjoyed the video

[@JT-lq4yd]

@@electronicsNmore I do, the tips shown here are great, they will come in handy sometime. Tracing a sewer line does not work for me as my house is not built as yours, but I believe what you showed can be used for a different purpose.

[@sjhall2009]

Very clever

Iron filings are only about $10 a jar, that might be much quicker and far more accurate, even with a little sweeping when done.

[@Quickened1]

That's a nifty way of locating the direction of your pipes!!! However, I would NEVER send those two beautiful magnets down a line without first wrapping them in duct tape! I know it's extremely unlikely they would encountered metal in such a pipe, but what if someone say shoved a screwdriver down the drain for example. If those magnets latched onto a jammed screwdriver, you may never get them back without digging them out. Or maybe a thick piece of rebar in the ground right next to the pvc, it could possibly attract the magnets with such force they could "leap" off the fish tape... Great concept Doug, but duct tape them just in case! Better to be safe, than sorry...

[@electronicsNmore]

Duct tape is not a good idea because what's happening you're creating a surface that creates drag and will be more likely to get hung up inside the pipe on turns Etc. It's not possible to lose the magnets, if they fall off you just shake the the steel cable or snake around and it will reconnect very quickly with the high-strength magnetic field

Great information & very clever eNm! 👍👍

Very cool! iPhone has a Compass, but this is better. And you're doing this for what? To find a clog? I would think you'd have to see wet concrete to locate a leak.

[@electronicsNmore]

I had a person asked me if there was a way to trace it without buying the electronic device. So I demonstrated

[@100vg]

@@electronicsNmore Great video, Scott. Thanks for the reply.

Can you do a test on the Wattsaver?

Sewer pipes are not PVC
They are ABS .
Thanks for sharing!

[@electronicsNmore]

Incorrect. ABS & PVC are both used. Thanks for watching

[@sjhall2009]

In my part of the world, most sewer pipes in homes are PVC.
