    Gonna buy one and try it out just for shallow water to collect some seafood at once instead of going down multiple times while free diving.
    thanks for the review cheers.

    Good vid. Spare air is another good brand, and i was under 15 minutes with a bottle smaller than that one filled from a dive shop. I like the manual pump too. Yes it takes a while but still...

    Do you know how many times you were able to fill the SMACO off your scuba tank? Just ordered two, excited to test them out.

      I have an 95hp got around 12 fills but the pressure drops off after about 5-6 fills but it's still getting over 2k psi even after 10 fills thanks for commenting we really appreciate it it helps the channel more than you can imagine

      We have the 2l version and really enjoy it nice to have that extra down time.

    We call these "Death in a bottle". Without proper scuba training to breath compressed gas at depth you can die from what you don't know.

      You said some key words there at depth and training we would never recommend these for deeper than 33ft we also recommend people to get training. Saying they are death in a bottle is a little harsh being that plenty of inexperienced divers have died with full gear on it definitely can happen. These fit a small group of people looking to explore a little more than snorkeling. Also for people looking to have a small light space saving set up. We took them to the keys they were great we did some shallow water lobstering and speared a few fish we also used one to check the bottom of a boat for an issue it was nice to have such a compact rig. Thanks for the comment

      ​@@ParkHopTillWeDrop good point you said. Let me ask...with oxygen/nitrous mixture in the SMACO 1 Liter, could you still go to 100 feet as long as you had extra SMACO tanks attached to you?

      ​​​dont go so deep. You have to take breaks to make the air regulate. And you wont have enough time. Decompresion sickness is no joke. But this is great for some 25ft fun.

      I had the same set up and it does not work as advertised. U can get maybe 10 min of normal breathing at the surface. As soon as u go to about 15ft u will only get maybe 4 min. U go to 20ft u get maybe 2 min. U are also wrong about regulating your breath. Bro they teach u to breath normal, so your time should never change. U should never breath shallow, and definitely never hold your breath at any depth from compressed air. I was wanting this to work but I would never use it in anything deeper then a 10' pool. It's literally death in a bottle. Don't get it, get a real pony tank. Your life is not worth it.
