Tells you how long a charge takes but not how long it runs between chargers. My experience with these toys is that you get very little running time between charges.

8,000 EURO($11,500USA)for base model is alittle steep.

Then 13,000 EURO($18,000USA) for the larger/more powerful unit.

Just watching the underwater acrobatics made my ears hurt. There is no way I would be able to equalize my ears that quickly. The first ten feet always seems to be the worst.

The video didn't show anyone using one of these while wearing SCUBA gear. A rapid ascent while SCUBA diving always presents the risk of an embolism or the bends.

My exact thoughts! My ears were hurting just watching the dives. As a certified scuba diver I would be wary of this new toy. I see ear drum injuries in the very near future.

you can get a scooter, but one that does only about 2-3mph, but is also only about $100-300 on ebay from various manufacturers
