EP16 - LOW COST DIVING equipment, comparative and INVENTIONS, for cleaning & maintenance of the boat

In this video we are going to compare some simple and inexpensive diving equipment, such as the SMACO or SCORKL mini bottles, with a "homemade" invention for hookah type underwater breathing, which will allow us to tackle many maintenance tasks on the site. Live from our boat from inside the water, diving, in a comfortable way. And also with the freedom to use them in any place or situation without prior planning.

✅ Water decanter filter (€ 3) https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_APAPzE
✅ 25m transparent hose https://amzn.to/49YVBHH

🔵 Some ready-made compressor with a long tube to breathe:
✅ On AliExpress (~ € 229) https://es.aliexpress.com/item/328906...
✅ Standalone version with battery floating behind you, this works quite well to 4 meters deep, https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c33...

I currently use an American-made battery-powered scuba diving unit, which I'm very happy with and which has replaced almost all the equipment in this video. It's not cheap, though; (Really expensive) the manufacturer gave it to me as a gift. You can dive to 9 meters deep without any problems. I use it for cleaning, repairs, recreational use, or even untangling anchors. Of course, I always carry a small backup scuba tank, just in case. It's always important to go diving with redundant equipment.
