The Mako was rebuilt a couple of years ago using the higher thickness O-rings for the motor compartment and Main housing (improves seal- suggested by Steve Gamble). While rebuilding it, the motor was rewound, the bearings and shaft seal were replaced. The batteries are the high drain version of the Powersonic 18 Amp Hr (They call them 21s, but for the current draw they are 13 Ah; typical 18 Ah batteries are 11 Ah for the same current draw). This scooter is faster than my SS.

The outer housing shows some wear from sliding it in and out of the truck (early on in its life).

The battery connectors were upgraded to andersons as the trailer plug variety (factory) would melt when the scooter was run on prop pitch 9 for any length of time - the current draw of the rewound motor can get high. The scooter is best used in the 6,7 range. It tends to get set 1 pitch setting lower than the SSs it ran with.

Results of a Burn Test is 41:29 to 20Volts using the resistors suggested for Gavins and SSs.

Time Volts
0 27.8V
1 24.6V
5 24.6V
10 24.4V
15 24.1V
20 23.7V
25 23.2V
30 22.6V
35 21.7V
40 20.1V
41:29 20V

I prefer to meet for test drives to avoid disappointments.

ill trade you both of my sartek HID 18w setups and an apeks reg set
for that scooter with the Al blades

 

[laguna230diver]

carl from sartek told me the lights are still worth about4-5 hundred each, and i would also include 2 extra bulbs/wires.

the canisters are large acrylic cases with heavy duty latches.
1 light is a 18w dive light w/handle
the other is a 18w filming light
i have an extra handle and the fittings for rigging up the lights for your dives

the apeks is a din or yoke, whichever you choose, i have a couple to choose from

I have recently acquired 2 new cannister lights (21W & 18W HIDs) in addition to the 24W HID I started with, so I have no need for additional lights.

On post looking for a DPV you indicated you had Poseidon Regs in addition to the Apeks. Are they all DIN? Would you care to offer a combination? Any Photos?

Thanks,

Keith
