hi, hoping to buy one of these and take it with me to Coron, Palawan Philippines, they do have 220v outlets, am i suppose to buy a converter to charge?if so, what kind of converte?thanks much
When using these scooters, how do you solve these problems: 1. diving in the tropics, as far as I know, always requires going with a divemaster. What if they don't have a scooter? Doesn't this really limit the places that you can use these? 2. How do you cope with the precision required to avoid touching the reef / animals / etc.? So much easier to do when all you have to do is worry about your buoyancy as you slowly drift, but with these scooters this seems like a serious issue. Yes, this looks absolutely awesome, but in practice I don't see how they would be worth buying. Am I missing something?
As long as you’re open water certified you can scuba. Not smart to dive alone, but no one will stop you. In many places in the Carribbean you can rent a Scuba tank and dive right from the beach, so you don’t need a boat either. I’ve done it in Cozumel, St. Maartin, Grand Caymen, and Curacao. Regarding damaging coral, I’ve seen more idiots damaging coral by thrashing around in the water, kicking corals with their fins. With this scooter the body is flat and relatively motionless. Control looks great with this scooter.
Pretty sure this video is where we just finished swimming in Casa Cenote Tulum, MX. Did it with just a snorkel and fins and it was fantastic.
I remember seeing Lloyd Bridges using a sea scooter in the "Sea Hunt" TV series in the late 50s.
Now this is cool!
Is it okay to be used in open water diving ?

@@tbandikoota hi
Actually this is illegal using in Mexico cenotes
Price $ ?
400
if you could connect to your body so your hands are free that seems more free..
How did they know there was no alligators or sharks down there 🤔 😳
It’s too slow…
$400 for 30 mins of runtime cool but not that cool
Spare Batteries are cheap enough
Take away the fun from swimming. It’s cool but technology makes humanity weak.
Now people are too lazy to swim? SMH
Apparently you've never done scuba. The more you exert, the faster your oxygen tank empties. This allows you to go further without running out of air.
i expect people to spend even more time in water with this
bro this guy 😑
