I have not, but I am a bit suspicious of it....
It is advertised for $69 MSRP in PADI's dive magazine. When you go to the website it is priced at $99. Leisure Pro has it for $69 but is out of stock. An email to the company questioning the difference in the prices shown everywhere but their website has gone unanswered for over a week. If the product is like their customer service, I would not trust it. Too bad, too, because it sounds neat.

I'm prone to outer ear infections if I spend too much time in fresh water - I just use a mix of 50/50 isopropyl alcohol and white vinegar to dry my ears after diving. Works a treat and is not a gimick!
KOMPRESSOR:
I have tried it (No, Sucker is not printed across my forehead, I didn't buy it, the sales rep left one for us to try this summer).
They pretty well stink. Much more trouble than they are worth. And definatly not worth $70-$100.
I have previously used a Borric acid/ alcohol mix (didn't like walking around smelling like vinegar) but have recently been told by a DR, to avoid using the alcohol based mixes, as it can cause the skin of the ear cannal to dry out, and peel, and the dead skin cells can increase your risk of infection. I've stated using hydrogen peroxide, and have had no problems.
