FAQ
Q: Why not just rinse the scuba mask underwater?
​
-
Rinsing a Scuba mask underwater requires training.
-
Valuable breathing air is lost in the process of forcing the water out of the mask.
-
Many divers require both hands to remove their masks, thereby limiting the use of one hand.
-
Difficult to rinse while holding an underwater camera.
-
Vision is completely obscured during the rinse, an undesirable state in many situations.
-
In contaminated waters, it is impossible to avoid facial contact with the contaminants.
​
Q: Why not just use defog/antifog solutions?
​
-
They tend to wash off during a dive.
-
Even the best antifog solutions wash off in 9 rinse cycles.
-
They cannot be re-applied during a dive.
-
The chemicals in the solutions are a source of concern for many health-conscious users.
-
Some are even eye irritants.
-
The supply in a bottle eventually runs out and must be re-purchased.
Q: Does it fall off the mask?
​
-
The strength of the magnets is designed to provide maximum attraction but without being overly strong to create "sticking."
​
Q: Does it interfere with Scuba Computers/Gauges?
​
-
Although the magnets used in our products are the strongest magnets currently available and should be kept away from credit cards, etc., they are not sufficiently strong to affect compasses, dive computers, and gauges (these devices are manufactured to be magnetically unaffected).
