underwater scooters

My husband is an avid scuba diver.  When he has a diving trip, that’s me time, so I haven’t given much thought to scuba-related things beyond reminding him to have enough full oxygen tanks on hand.  I had no idea there were underwater scooters—they look like a lot of fun!

This aqua sea scooter can be used in a swimming pool, lake or ocean.   It has been rated at depths up to 100 feet (we recommend 60 feet).   It is simple to use—pull a handlebar trigger and it starts moving, pull the second trigger to activate maximum power, point it down and it will steer you into deeper water.  The X-treme brand is proud of their quality merchandise, and their underwater electric sea scooter features metal gear construction with a lifetime warranty.  For added incentive, Electric Scooters and Bikes offers free shipping on each X-treme Underwater Electric Sea Scooter.  Last but not least, a safety precaution:  an underwater electric sea scooter should only be used by strong swimmers and under close adult supervision!


What Are Electric Pocket Bikes?

Electric pocket bikes

They are very small bikes used for racing that look like miniature replicas of motorcycles with smaller engines.  Sometimes they are called electric or mini pocket rockets.  The ones sold by Electric Scooters and Bikes are constructed to approximately ¼ scale of a standard size motorcycle, built to be lightweight and aerodynamic.

Electric pocket bikes look like toys, but they are not—they are meant to be used on racetracks or closed parking lots. Pocket bikes were developed in Europe and Japan, becoming very popular over the last several years.  Their visibility is increasing by leaps and bounds in the United States, with good reason–electric pocket bikes are cleaner, quieter and more economical than gasoline-powered versions, and racing is fun!
