Nifty Idea...
Kinda pricey though. Seems like you could probably get setup on a couple a scooters for the same outlay of moolah.
I do see one immediate use....parapalegic divers who don't have use of their legs.

There was a brief blurb on these in the recently released fall issue of Immersed magazine.
For that kind of money you could get a Gavin and have money left over for a second battery!

I also wonder what ol' George Irvine has to say about such things?
Those are way cool, but way overpriced. 5750 with the hard battery pack. I'm thinking for 5750 my money will be going to drager long before it goes to this place. If they made their price point in the 750-950 range they could be setting on a goldmine as many divers could afford them.
I mean lets be real these are motors from a trolling motor that costs a couple hundred dollars for top of the line and the batteries are available commercially already. I assume there are some basic controls but I doubt they are all that fancy.
But hey if they want to give me some to test, I'm their man!

TexasMike,
I think you know what GI3 thinks of these :1st:.
A quick scan of techdiver archives (try jetboots as a subject query) will show that these contraptions have already been kicked around and kicked to death over there. I don't know about over here but they were not all that warmly received on techdiver. Needless to say (but I will anyway) nobody bothered to mention them on the Quest list.

For that kind of cash I could buy a real good gym membership to put some more meat on my bones and do it the good old fashion way. (or atleast buy a couple of scooters)
