Advantages of using a Scooter (Dive propulsion Vehicle)

This instructional video by Scuba.com discusses the advantages of using scooters. Having a scooter, also known as a diver propulsion vehicle, will eliminate the need to kick since it is moving you through the water. It is common to improve your diving time by about 50% because the less you work the less you breathe. The battery life on a scooter is approximately 90 minutes and has a speed of about 2.5mph.
