From a personal standpoint, I would agree, since it's extremely rare to be hurt when erring on the side of caution. But, since I am just a guy on the internet it's better if they get the info from an unimpeachable source.

My question as well. However, it seems to me that if this is an issue a call to DAN wouldn't be a bad thing to do.

Why should anyone tar and feather you? You seem likable and sincere.

Strangely, Business Insider put out an article at almost the same time today as mine, making the same points and even using much the same background material. Who knew great minds thought so much alike? People have spent more than $600K on electronic 'gills' that experts say are science fiction

Alright, let's call out these people: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/all-hail-triton-nonexistent-now-give-us-your-money-john-lewis?published=u

Right? This is pretty brazen on the part of the scammers. Why it hasn't been taken down is an absolute mystery to me.

Been to that resort. You're going to love it. They won't remember me, but tell'em I said hi anyway.

I've also been to Roatan and Fiji. My vote is for Fiji, with no reservations at all. More biodiversity, for starters.

First two worked for me. It was a pleasure, in fact, to zoom in enough that I could trace the various routes I took when walking the island-even to places I'd stop at to cool off or have a bite to eat.

This is something that has come up in discussions I've had with other divers who were also 'of a certain age'. There was a span of several years between my own OW certification and taking AOW onward. I remember being surprised that AOW simply repeated everything learned years before; nothing new...

Your point is well-taken, and I don't know how to address it. The fact is that the items you talk about all seem to sell, and quite well, too. What do you think can be done to change that, and what alternative merchandise could be offered instead?

The only thing that comes to mind are the self-serving things that come out of DEMA, and the limited ones from that industry survey done quarterly that depends on honest self reporting from shops. What would it take to make either better, or replace them entirely?

Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP) has been making inroads for some time now in vacation areas around the world. Now, it looks like scuba is taking notice of this activity, and wants in on the action with paddleboards and gear specifically for the underwater adventurer. You can learn more at SUP TO...

They're based in Sweden, right? Wouldn't they have to go through EU certification for this thing in order to offer it? That would entail submitting working models for testing by a third party. Even setting all that aside, look at what they claim on their own fundraising pages...

I can, without any hesitation whatsoever. This thing cannot exist. This whole thing is a scam and fraud as presented.

So what do you call a scheme that takes money from people for a product that does not and cannot exist?

Could you give little bit more when you refer to meaningful market research? What's lacking right now?

That great technical answer "It depends" rears it's head here. I am not a lawyer. This answer is based on conversation with real lawyers I've had over the years. Your experience may vary or differ wildly. You can be sued anywhere, at any time, by any one if they can make a good legal argument...

Came here to post the same article, which is an excellent technical debunking of why such a product cannot work as described. This is a scam, sweet and simple.

What is a burning issue for you as it relates to the business of scuba? Is it a business practice that needs to stop? One that needs to happen? To be examined more deeply? Is it something else entirely? Here's the forum, gang. Time to sanely look at all the things we talk about concerning us...
