Will Soot Eater rods flex through (2) 45deg elbows about 18" apart? In the past, I've always taken that section out and cleaned it separately, but it would be nice to just take out the baffle and let all the fluff fall into the stove. Anyone with any experience like this? Thanks

Yes

I think you will find that the White Soot Eater Rods are a little more flexible than the Black rods,and will make those turns easier.

Thank you bholler and double-d

No problem. It will go thru them like buttah. I have the black rods and this same offset coming off the stove but with a 6" connector in between. There is a very slight additional resistance but I haven't had any issue getting the brush and rods up the flue.

Will this thing go past a damper and still work effectively, or would the damper section need removed ??

Flue probe thermometers and stove pipe dampers should be removed.

Mine goes by my 45s and a turn damper without issue-
