Can you say fun? This little torpedo delivers plenty of it. I'll come back and add to the review if there's any issues, but so far it's a pretty awesome little underwater scooter. I have another scooter with twice the power that is a bit faster than this one, but it's large and bulky. That's where this one really shines. It's compact and lightweight. I'm in my 70's and still like to have fun and do fun stuff like snorkeling at the Dry Tortuga's National Park. Only thing is I run out of energy before the fun is done. This gives me a chance to enjoy snorkeling longer and will easily fit in a backpack that I can take on the sea plane or the boat. Since it includes the arm attachment we'll try doing one on each arm once the other one arrives. Aquaman look out for the crusty retired soldier and old man with a Subnado strapped to each arm!

If you are considering spending the 400 bucks or so to get one and are weighing the pros and the cons, let me help you. If you are over 60 and still like doing this stuff, BUY IT! (if you buy direct from Waydoo its only 350 & free FAST shipping & no tax!) Thank me later! I bought these for us in April(I am NOT a free stuff-receiver/reviewer) for a June trip to Jamaica and I wondered "will they pull my 185lbs around and down in the saltwater ocean with the increased buoyancy?" I mean, the 105lb girl is cute but not representative of a man my size, right? The answer was YES, one machine will take you anywhere you want to go and in 3rd gear & that includes going straight down in the ocean if that’s your thing. These 2 Subnado's, one for me and one for my sweetheart made all the difference in the real world choppy conditions off Negril. They were life-changing for me. For her in-shape self, it was fun but I am older w/compromised breathing……I was never out of breath, they made that much of a difference for me. What used to be a test of endurance, became fun again! It’s stupid fun! Wearing two machines( per arm) will turn you into Aquaman! You will get a stupid grin on your face! I promise you, if you are over 50 it won’t go away! My sweetheart also wore both at once and she came up laughing her heart out! Charging them; I bought a $30 charger that will pump out 100W from one USB C port and it gets toasty, now I know why the “double-chargers” really only one have 1 @ full-rate. I used the heck out of it charging both machines multiple times some days…it still works. - Eleanos USB C Charger, 100W 4 Port USB C Charging Station, Charges from empty in less than an hour. ½ refills in 20 minutes. Cool way of charging too so you can see it building…..you’ll see. 1st gear- will tote you around the pool was underpowered for the Ocean so pop into 2nd gear by dbl-tapping the trigger....in 2nd gear a single machine will let you run rings around the rest of the group on the ocean. Triple-tapping the trigger will put it in 3rd gear. In 3rd gear you are a master of direction, pivot and spin on a dime, turn and let it jet you straight down too or outrun Michael Phelps, your call! I also learned that by letting a member or 2 of the crew of the Snorkel boat try it, they let you go off on your own and didn't have to stay "on the rope" when over a reef like the others in the group did (Pro-tip; Never touch or take from any reef, be cool when you do cool stuff)! Machine summary; Great quality build, everyone is impressed by the execution; I own machines, all kinds.....you guys know what I mean....and these are very well-built with a lot more guts than I thought they would have! The specs are evident and the only “risk” is the non-replaceable batteries. I see it this way, if the Battery solution is executed with the same QC the rest of the machine seems to be, this should last for years. If it isn’t and they “shortcutted”, we’ll all find out together. Bad point; The Safety strap is 90% correct but one of the quick-connect round tabs(male side) broke off and was lost while trying to reconnect while using it. Maybe a change in materials? The rest of the safety strap is Excellent, it’s strong, easy to use with the “keeper tab” of material and it’s easy to see. Pro tip; Watch the line between anchor-point and strap, it can reach the prop and get sucked in. Special K There's MORE; Check out the 4x4!

It was great while it worked. The problem is it stopped working. I’ve been diving at a place where many people have had similar experiences with the waydoo subnado. The vehicle itself is a great design with very damning weak point: the place where the controllers connect to the unit are incredibly susceptible to corrosion and many people after taking it into the ocean only about 5 times find that the connection is impeded by salt water interrupting the connection. I myself dived with the unit for about 6 times before it just suddenly can’t be controlled anymore.

We have really enjoyed our Subnado underwater scooters. We bought the accessories and can use on our legs like aquaman and also just holding on while it pulls you. We have snorkeled and scuba dived with them. The battery last quite a while. Both my husband and I can make one last an hour + if we are conservative with using the turbo speed. It’s perfect that you can carry them on planes in the cabin. Very good customer service as well. We had a problem and they responded immediately. I totally recommend this underwater scooters. Lots of fun, quick and pretty quiet.

We’ve purchased two scooters, and across our group of friends we have a total of 13. Two of them had issues with the trigger, but Waydoo provided replacements. In the meantime, we were able to get them working intermittently by cleaning the contacts with alcohol after each dive. More recently, we’ve started applying a very small amount of dielectric silicone grease, which has resolved the issue. It’s also important to keep all connectors—both the trigger and the charger—completely dry to avoid problems. They have decent battery life. For the price, they are good. They make more dive sites accessible from shore.

My initial impressions of the Subnado was that it's solidly built and is made of great-quality material. Taking it out of the box, it had a good heft to it and definitely gave a "tech unboxing" vibe over an "outdoor accessory/toy" feeling. Which is a good thing (to me). Bare-bones assembly was pretty straight-forward, as I didn't have any interest in messing with the (many) accessories this comes with just yet. Just snap on the handle and link up the controller connector (wire running out of the handles) to the contacts on the Subnado. There's some greasing that needs to be done, but I'll get into that later. I was pleasantly surprised at the softness and ergonomics of the handle. It felt good to hold and the grip was comfortable. The trigger placement is great too - the trigger itself is just a tad small, but that may be because this is advertised for use by children as well. I briefly switched it on just to make sure it was in working order, and all looked good, so I set it up to charge. Near the back of the Subnado body is a safety label - it has a few good reminders, which I always welcome on consumer-grade tech… especially expensive and potentially risky (self-injury) tech like this Subnado. Warnings/pictorials include a reminder to ensure to turn off the device before servicing (charging) it, the meaning behind a couple of the non-typical battery indicator patterns, and general safety stuff (e.g. not letting long hair get near the propellers). I originally thought this label was meant to come off before use, but it seems it is meant to stay on. A small thing, but worth noting. As mentioned earlier, there's a good amount of accessories included with this, though to be honest, I haven't felt a strong desire to get into them yet. Some nice ones worth noting include the wrist-mount with hand grip (if you wanted to one-arm it and do a 'superman' across the pool), optional tether, and mounting adapter for attaching this to a pool float. So on grease, I felt it necessary to briefly go over its importance: do NOT skip this step or skimp on the application. There's plenty provided to get a good coat on the necessary areas. Coming from an industry that necessitates some level of gasket or O-ring greasing to help with maintaining a proper seal, I cannot stress the importance of it here. To an extent, the grease helps to cover any tiny openings or voids that could allow water in within the gasket or O-rings, but its main reason is to ensure those things do not get sheared out of position during tightening or mounting. Think of how a rubber band would rub between your hands, bare, vs. being coated in a semi-slippery grease. In one, it'll twist in on itself multiple times, and on the other, it'll almost want to stay completely neutral. In short: use the grease; get good seals. There's only two areas (the port cover for the USB-C port and the controller connector interface), so it doesn't take long to do. With this device costing what it does, the last thing you want is water ingress damaging or ruining it. No manufacturer will cover user-inflicted damage, whether due to an accident or simply neglect. On that note, it would have been helpful for Waydoo to provide more grease. The tube provided is a bit small, and would have been ideal if it was larger (think of a Neosporin tube). Because best practice would be to replace the grease on frequent-access areas (like the charge port cover) every time it is removed, at minimum. Still, the tube is at least good for long-term storage, and preferable to those tearable 'grease packets' that I've seen some other brands provide. Now, on usage: I started off using the Subnado in a relatively small swimming pool, and this thing has more than enough power to zip me across quickly. Probably not a great representation of what it can do "full send," but it's the experience I've had with it by this point (~a week in). It's a lot of fun, has a good kick, and so far, pretty good battery life. I've put it through two rounds of use (probably 15-20min each, but closer to maybe 8-10min of actual, continuous runtime) and it's down to 7 of 8 cells on the battery indicator. If it's like any other type of device with a battery indicator, I take this to just mean that it is working on depleting the current cell. So to recap - the build quality is there, a healthy number of accessories are included, and the functionality is great (so far). Time will tell on the long-term durability. The price is a tad steep at the $500 MSRP, but if you can get it on sale for $400 or so, it will sting a little less.

This gadget is very fun in clear ocean waters for all ages and sizes. It works great for pulling people underwater. It is not great for pulling someone on the surface. It is not strong enough for pulling people against strong ocean currents. However, great for helping tread water by turning it propeller down in the strong currents. It needs a longer battery life and more power to be more than a fun toy. We hope to attach it to a paddle board to make paddling upriver easier, but with its weak power and quick battery, I am not sure it will work for that purpose. It has no finger guard installed and you have to install it yourself. We could not do this on vacation without tools. This needs to be pre-installed by the company and is a glaring safety issue. Great for a first try from the company and hope to see a pre-installed finger guard, more power and longer battery life in the next generation. Definitely do buy if the company fixes these issues.

this is a pretty cool idea but it really doesn't have much power. It seems to have power for about 2 minutes then the power decreases for some unknown reason even though the battery has plenty of charge left on it. the design and the quality of the materials used to build it seem pretty solid. I was disappointed thought when it suddenly lost power after a minute or two both times I've used it.
