dpv

It should be an easy thing to make, but just wondering if anyone has. I like the idea of using Diverite’s QRM for not only lights, but for a camera mount too. Apparently it was a “You Pay Us” offer and that is why you can’t find them online with the two companies. I’m going to take the...

I’m looking for a dived blacktip DPV in the Fort Lauderdale area or the surrounding areas. It does not need to be new. If someone has something available it would be great.

I have a mint condition Dacor SV900 DPV that comes with the original documents, packing materials, and box. This unit came in from a local customer and does not appear to have been used for more than a handful of dives. All orings appear to be in good shape, the unit powers on and spins from the...

Hello! Thank you for clicking through and reading my post - I'm looking for some DPV advice ... I moved from the UK a year ago to Grenada, and because of all the great diving I can enjoy here, decided to buy a BlackTip DPV Travel edition and spent the extra to have the security of the vacuum...

Hi, Curious to see if anyone has taken Divers Propulsion Vehicles (DPV or Underwater Scooters) onboard liveaboards? Even in sub-tropical (26C or 79F) waters, recreational diving depths I am pretty spent by 4 or 5 dives at the end of the day. Was thinking one way to lessen the swimming work...

Suex XK1 for sale. This DPV have been my primary DPV the last couple of years. Last service in Feb 2024 and in very good condition. Battery is at or near end of life, and should be replaced before any serious diving. This model has the "new" version of the XK handle, so locking in the cruise...

I’m in the market for one of or something similar to: Piranha P2 Sierra Cuda 400 (ideally but I know everyone is looking for this one as well) Sea craft Go! (Wishful) Any help would be greatly appreciated. Kris

Embark on a tranquil journey with this brief video, capturing the serene essence of my underwater adventures. Joining forces with two teammates, we navigate the…

I am travelling to Curaçao and I am planning to take a XJT DPV (NIMH battery) with me. Has anyone travelled with such a scooter? Do you have any recommendations for a case or bag? Thanks

Anyone know of any Dive Operations in the Florida Keys that allow DPV diving on the wrecks. Not wanting to do any deco dives just my buddy and myself just want to be able to get around the wrecks. Looking at doing the Vandenberg and the Spiegel Grove.

A couple years ago I got a good deal on two older model (pre-PTB) DiveX Piranha P1 DPVs. Great scooters, but unfortunately one of the batteries has now gone kaput. The other still works and has decent burn time. I purchased all of the materials and 18650 batteries to rebuild the first battery...

Background: I don't currently own a DPV, and I'm currently saving up for Tech 1, but I can rent decent SUEX scooters from my local dive club where I do most of my diving these days. I've only tried a DPV once, on a shallow 20 min try-dive, and while it felt OK I was definitely aware of much...

Update: sold Update: willing to take $2,500. My dive buddy passed away last year and I am selling his gear to get money to his family. He had this Genesis 1200 scooter. It was working fine, but since I did not know how to care for the batteries properly, one of them has drained down below...

Hi, Does anyone have previous experience with travel to Egypt with DPV? Specifically with Egypt Air?. I recently purchased the Seacraft GO and want to take it on my travel. The batteries are lithium 97Wh segments x6 and fall within the aviation guidelines for lithium batteries of under 100 Wh...

In the wake of my previous DPV questions and the suggestions I was given, I am now the new owner of a Gavin Short Tube DPV. Say hello to my new dive buddy! Now that I have it, what do I do with it? :) I'm not directly asking for driving suggestions (though I'll take them, too). I'm more...

Outside of just doing an in-water test, how do you burn test your DPV batteries? Resistor bank and voltmeter? Looking for a way to properly burn test my DPV at home with either a DIY solution or something off the shelf if a company makes a tester. I have a DiveX Piranha (non-PTB) but would also...

tl;dr: Is the Apollo AV-1 DSV a good intro 'learning' scooter for someone with almost no DPV experience? Will the skills gained -- not the scooter itself -- eventually translate toward technical/cave DPV usage? And what is a good price for one? I have the opportunity to buy an Apollo AV-1...

Has anyone taken Dewalt 9ah batteries thru Routan’s Customs? Wha about smaller size batteries? We are staying a week in Roatan and wanted to bring our Blacktips.

*Sold* Selling my DiveX Sierra with Smart DPV and X Prop installed for $1500CAD obo. This is a great Tech lite DPV, capable of silently cruising at 45m(150ft)/min when rigged with doubles and a stage. It will be a great compact recreational, light tech, or backup scooter due to its small form...

The Blacktip Travel DPV (BlackTip Travel) has a very attractive weight and size for air travel however it doesn’t trim flat (floating nose). Has anyone been able to attach weights to it to make it trim neutral? How much of a problem it actually is and is the trade-off with size justified when...
