Dive X Piranha Power Tool Battery Body Kit
New Battery For All Piranha Scooters
Dive X's new power tool battery is a huge improvement on previous scooter batteries. It is compatible with all Piranha scooters and can be used together with older batteries in P1 and P3 configurations.
The battery is a housing into which four power tool batteries (that you can most likely source online or at your local hardware store) are dropped in to create a larger battery. This offers some huge advantages to you the diver:
- Battery packs are available almost anywhere in the world.
- It can travel with you on regular aircraft flights.*
- Same size, weight, capacity, and power as original Piranha battery
- No hazmat shipping when purchasing
- Easy to replace packs as they age and deteriorate.
- *Each pack is less than 100wh and so compatible with current airline regulations.

Important Facts
Don't leave your battery connected to your scooter for long durations. Even though there is protection, it may over discharge the battery. Always connect your battery just before the dive, and disconnect it shortly after.
For air travel always check current regulations, travel typically requires you to carry the individual power tool modules in your hand luggage.
