The battery powered 'powerful modified micro compressor' could be a slight challenge since there's no such thing as a battery powered powerful modified micro compressor.

Right? This is pretty brazen on the part of the scammers. Why it hasn't been taken down is an absolute mystery to me.
 
They need to "Conduct final tests before we start manufacturing" (it's in the What's next section).

Talking about the lack of engineers, they're actually looking for a technician in marine technology in the Career opportunity section.
If you have apnea capabilities, including lungs over-filling, and are able to exhale at least 12 series of bubbles in about 2 minutes while swimming, you could even be co-co-founder.
 
Indiegogo support has been 'on' this supposedly - even sending them an explanation that this is breaking multiple laws of physics & engineering there's no response aside from 'ok' out of them. Now it's up to almost $600k and looks like the sky's the limit. Maybe I should put up a smaller unit with no depth limit and see what happens!
 
I'm in if you add a gaz mix selection ring.

Who's gonna fake their fake demo ?

I also wrote to their partners in crime (indiegogo).

Question from Mike : 1) From what country will the Triton be shipped, (due to Custom fees outside/inside Europe)
My answer : From Neverland.

It looks like they've found the maritime technician they were looking for.
There's now that young guy that is giving lessons in the comment section about the functioning : Alex Skjødt Holberg.
Can you believe it ? Isn't that the Stockholm syndrome ? First they scam you and then you preach with them (inventing even another version of the pitch).

600 000$ now.

I tried to call them out "respectfully" on their Facebook page but posts must be approved. I did share the scam today with all my friends as I recall seeing a couple people share a marketing link a couple months ago.

Apparently there's quite an increase in crowd funding scams, which makes sense. Easy way to steal people's money. Why should the crowd funding site care as long as it doesn't get out of hand... They're getting their cut of the scam.
 
In the comment section, some people are now trying an old daffy duck trick to get their money back.

hi~ i have question.
You said, one of departure place is south korea. it means, if i live in south korea, can i get this product without customs tariff??

If i don’t need to pay customs tariff, actually I want buy more. cancel before order and buy another option( 2 or more)

Thank you.

I'll bet you'll see more of that. The latest victim appears to have realized he's been scammed. I don't think you can post unless you've contributed.

Since you can not disclose the “patent pending” technology, make a video that is 45 minutes long with your iphone and a guy in the pool using your tritton product. Takes 60 minutes tops. Use your iphone, video record, upload onto youtube. I just want to be sure this is real, not wait until December 2016 only to hear in an update it will be delayed another 4 months, far from reach from a charge back if this product does not deliver as promised or at all.

BTW, a patent/patent application and trademark search turns up nothing. One of the reasons why they can't answer specific questions... Right. Except patents are designed to make your idea/design public and known so others don't copy it for profit and to provide you with the ability to take legal action against someone who does.
