Selling Meg teeth, I’d assume.
 
Can excavate 3-16" sand and broken rubble on speed 3-4....in about 15 secs or less.

I dive doubles with deco bottle side slung...

You must be wearing some weight! Even with doubles on Speed 4 will blow me right off the bottom in a few seconds! I'm usually on speed 2, 3 is my max when blowing rubble.
 
Austin-

I actually don't dive as heavy as some.... I have 13 pds on me, and 9 pds strapped around the Blacktip on an extra cam band.

That being said.... if I had a bigger wing I would probably add another few pds of ditchable lead...just cause I could blow on 5 and move more dirt faster....
 
People pay stupid money for meg teeth, even those worn encrusted teeth they find offshore ( I know they also find some nicer ones occasionally).

Guys I know that use the Blacktip literally stake it to the bottom on a tether.

Oh, I've thought about strapping weight on the scooter itself just to keep it down, trust me.
 
I own the Blacktip Travel and just tried the Scubajet Pro a couple days ago. I love the Blacktip minus the nose-up trim with the Travel, which was the only version available when I bought it.

The Scubajet is small, almost like a toy, and at least the scooter I tried was weighted extremely negative for the freshwater spring we were at. I did like the light on the Scubajet but didn't like the requirement to press both triggers each time to engage the motor. It could be used one-handed but is not ideal in that manner. The display was very nice and shows your depth and other relevant battery life/ speed information but I didn't feel it was really a necessary feature for me with a scooter. I don't remember the exact specs on the battery but I think even with dual batteries in the Scubajet it falls short of what the Blacktip can do with 12ah's or certainly a custom pack.

At least with the Blacktip you can buy the Tech tube for ~$300 and you've more depth and it trims.
