HYPER GOGO | Manta Sea Scooter

What you need to know:
- As youd expect, it is extremely fun.
- Top gear isnt quite as fast as advertised, more like 3fps or so.
- It floats most of the time, but it can definitely sink as well. (see photos of both floating and sunk device)
- The charger gets **extremely** hot, though the batteries dont.
- Battery life is easily double what is advertised.

Right out of the box this little sea scooter got oohs and ahhs, and they were well deserved. It is a solidly built, yet lightweight device. The bright green/yellow color makes it really eye catching, and that helped out in the water when tracking it from the surface as well. A quick run down on the feature list confirmed the GoPro mount, the triggers for controlling it, and the easy to attach battery pack. Speaking of the battery pack, a nice surprise was that it came with two, doubling the expected run time.

It also came with a nice waterproof roll top storage and transportation bag with a small mesh outer pocket, just large enough to contain what I dubbed the suicide strap. I dont know about you, but the idea of being physically attached to something that could pull me straight to the bottom of a body of water just didnt seem like a good idea, and since the device floats, I figured why bother? That being said, it turns out that it doesnt always float. If tipped sideways while underwater, it will take on water in the body and if you let go it will sink to the bottom. In a pool thats fine, but good luck finding it if that happens in a lake so thats definitely something to be aware of.

When it comes down to it however, this little scooter has some pretty good pull. I dont know that I ever spent much time in the 1 or 2 speed modes other than on my way to 3. It did great pulling me with my head above water, but even better when I went fully underwater where it felt like I was flying, just pointing where I wanted to go and being thrust in that direction. Worth noting is that while I was getting nearly double the expected battery life, that was not while holding down the trigger and riding it non-stop for a full 20-25 minutes, but a more realistic riding around for 5-10 minutes, letting someone else try, stopping to check things out, and going again much like you would snorkeling or during any other activity.

Overall despite a few flaws, it is an extremely fun device that really exceeded expectations when it came to battery life. It is a bit on the expensive side, but we had so much fun with it I think it was worth it and Id definitely recommend giving it a shot if youre on the fence.

This is a seamless and AMAZING underwater scooter. It's very well designed and it is very popular to use in the pool for everyone thus far. I'm looking forward to many, many more dives, floats, and tows with this underwater scooter in my hands.

From the moment you take this out of the package you know that it is built with quality in mind and it's built to withstand the unforgiving nature of water. The battery packs are secured easily and they are designed to keep the water out. The propellers are protected but are not blocked. They even have access to the props in case something gets stuck in the propeller blades (thing seaweed or leaves) you can clean it out easily. While I haven't been able to test this in the sea yet, I can tell you that it works perfectly at a 15-foot depth.

When using the scooter there are 3-speed options to choose from. When you use the lowest speed, speed 1, the battery pack lasted between 30 and 40 minutes for me. If you use it solely on speed 2 it lasted for about 20-25 minutes and when we used it on speed 3, it lasts about 15 minutes.

The battery packs take approximately 2 hours to fully charge after they've been used. After using the sea scooter primarily on speed 3, the battery pack got warm but nothing to be concerned about. I'd recommend letting the batteries cool down before charging them.

Overall, this is an amazing scooter that's an amazing value. It's easy to use and it's incredibly fun! The quality, the design, the ease of use, and the fun that it provides are simply fantastic. I'd highly recommend this sea scooter to anyone looking to explore underwater more thoroughly.

Grandson loves it. Smaller than I expected but perfect for a 10 YOA underwater enthusiast. Getting the most use of it (in the pool) and can't wait to get it in the waters of Key West.

Der Tauchscooter - Seascooter ist ein Fun-Sport Gerät fürs Wasser. Ich hab das Glück, in der Nähe von einem großen Stausee zu wohnen. Der Tauchscooter hat zwei Propeller als Antrieb. Er zieht mich sehr schnell durchs Wasser, ich kann durch die Handschalter 3 Geschwindigkeitsstufen einstellen, die schnellste schafft laut Hersteller 1,5m/s. Messen kann ich den Wert nicht, man muss sich aber gut festhalten. Ich nutze den Scooter sowohl über Wasser als auch unter Wasser. Je nach Geschwindigkeit kann ich das Gerät ca. 20-30 Minuten nutzen. Der Akku ist wechselbar, ich werde mir auf alle Fälle einen Zweitakku besorgen, die Zeit geht schnell rum. Wenn man mal den Manta verliert, ist das auch nicht schlimm, er schwimmt an der Wasseroberfläche. Die Verarbeitung ist sehr ordentlich und der macht einen sehr robusten Eindruck. An der Vorderseite ist noch eine Halterung für Actionkameras. Habe ich noch nicht ausprobiert. Steuern kann ich das Teil über zwei Handschalter, wenn ich einen nicht halte, lenk ich in die entgegengesetzte Richtung. Mein Fazit, wenn man den Dreh raus hat will man nicht mehr aufhören.

This sea scooter is amazing in every sense of the word.

My 7 year old rode this the entire time we are at the pool. It had him flying through the water, I am much bigger than him and it went slower for me, but wow was it fun. Easy to maneuver and dive or get back up to the surface.

You hold the handles and pull the each individual trigger to get the independent fans moving; pull both triggers at the same time to move forward or press one trigger to turn in a direction. It has 4 green battery lights, when it is down to one green light and flashing it gives you an idea to head back towards the other battery before it turns off.

The battery is easy to replace and it has a built in go pro mount. The quality on it is fantastic.

I would highly recommend it for your strong swimmers 6/7 years old up.

Unsere Teenagerkinder hatten im Meer (Südfrankreich) richtig Spaß mit dem Teil. Und ja unsere Kinder können richtig schwimmen... Selbst wir Eltern und die erwachsene Tochter konnte das Teil ziehen. Jetzt muss ein Ersatzakku her, damit wir im nächsten Urlaub länger Spaß haben. Der Akku hält ca. 45 min.

Bello e veloce

Motore stupendo mio figlio di 7 anni lo usa da venti giorni si diverte tantissimo un consiglio di comprare una seconda batteria per allungare il tempo di divertimento dei bimbi
Super consigliato

Nous l'avions achet pour nos vacances aux Maldives, c'tait gnial.
Simple d'utilisation, de bonne qualit, je recommande vivement.
Dtail important, le SAV semble tre en Allemagne, et si le stock allemand est vide, il se rapprovisionnent en Chine. Donc les dlais d'attente sont un peu longs en cas de problme.
Toutefois, le SAV est super ! Je suis agrablement surpris de l'attention qu'ils portent leur client.
Je recommande donc le produit, la marque et les quipes SAV !

Battery lasts about 20 mins on full power then you get another 20 mins on speed 2

Preis Leistung top, ein zweiter Akku wäre empfehlenswert den wenn man einmal angefangen will man nicht mehr aufhören .

sehr schöner schneller Scooter, drei Geschwindigkeitsstufen bei längerer Nutzung stärkeren Akku dazu bestellen, Service 1a bei Problemen wird sofort geholfen kann ich nur empfehlen

Ich war auf der Suche nach einem bezahlbarem Scooter für unsere Tauchschule. Meine Frau hat mir diesen Geschenkt. Der erste Test zeigte an dem Gerät einen Defekt, den der technische Support selber nicht kannte. Jedoch war die Kommunikation und der Service beispielhaft. Sehr netter und kompetenter Kontakt und eine schnell Abwicklung und schon war der neue Scooter da.
Der Scooter selber hat eine sehr gutes und einfaches Handling. Die Steuerung von Richtung, Geschwindigkeit und Tiefe ist sehr einfach. Es macht einfach Spass damit durch das Wasser zu gleiten. Eine gute günstige Alternative zu den "normalen" Scootern, die beim Tauchen verwendet werden. Wir werden mit diesem Scooter bei uns schulen und ihn auch an unsere Schüler weiter empfehlen.

Super Gerät bin zufrieden

A reccomander. Trs facile d'utilisation. la batterie en vitesse 3 tient maximum 15 mn.
