Waydoo Subnado Plus

Waydoo Subnado Plus – INFORMATION

The Waydoo Subnado Plus is the high-thrust member of the Subnado underwater scooter family, made for divers and water-sports enthusiasts who want more pulling power without giving up the compact, travel-friendly design that made the Subnado popular. An 800 W motor produces up to 9.3 kg of thrust and moves you through the water at up to 1.7 m/s on a single unit, or up to 2.4 m/s when two units are paired together.

At just 1.8 kg and 397 × 60 mm, the Subnado Plus slips easily into hand luggage, while the 144 Wh battery and IP68 housing keep it ready for adventures down to 60 m. Whether you are snorkelling along a reef, extending a freedive, exploring on scuba or adding effortless propulsion to your SUP, the Subnado Plus delivers dependable performance in a package you can take anywhere.

Small Body, Big Performance

The upgraded 800 W motor lifts maximum thrust by up to 43 % compared with the standard Waydoo Subnado, yet the scooter stays remarkably light. Three selectable gears — Low, High and Super Gear — let you cruise gently in tight spaces or unleash full power when you want to cover distance, with a dedicated 150-second Super Gear burst for those extra-fast moments.

Dive Hands-Free

A cruise mode keeps the Subnado Plus running at a steady pace so you can let go and enjoy the dive without holding the trigger. Together with the included arm mount, handle bracket and finger safe guard, you can adapt the scooter to handheld or mounted use and keep both hands free for your camera or dive gear.

Charge Fast, Stay Out Longer

Up to 60 minutes of runtime means more time exploring between charges. When it is time to top up, PD3.1 140 W bi-directional fast charging refills the battery in roughly 1.2 hours through a standard USB-C port — and the scooter can even serve as a power bank for your phone, action camera or other USB-C devices.

Waydoo Subnado Plus FAQ

Can I take the Waydoo Subnado Plus on a plane?

The Subnado Plus is powered by a 144 Wh battery. Lithium batteries between 101 and 160 Wh are generally allowed in carry-on luggage with prior airline approval, which makes the Subnado Plus well suited to travel. We recommend confirming the current battery rules with your airline before you fly.

How deep can the Subnado Plus dive?

Thanks to its IP68-rated, fully sealed housing, the Subnado Plus is built for use down to 60 metres — covering snorkelling, freediving and recreational scuba depths.

How long does the battery last and how quickly does it charge?

You get up to 60 minutes of runtime per charge. Recharging takes roughly 1.2 hours over USB-C using PD3.1 140 W bi-directional fast charging, and the scooter can also work as a power bank for USB-C devices such as phones or action cameras.

How is the Subnado Plus different from the standard Subnado?

The Plus steps up to an 800 W motor and up to 9.3 kg of thrust, compared with 500 W and 6.5 kg on the standard Waydoo Subnado. That gives noticeably higher top speed and pulling power while keeping a similarly compact, lightweight body.

Can I connect two units together?

Yes. Two Subnado Plus units can be paired in a dual-engine configuration, increasing top speed to around 2.4 m/s for stronger propulsion.

Which activities is the Subnado Plus suitable for?

It is designed for snorkelling, freediving and scuba diving, and its modular mounting system also lets you add propulsion to a SUP or other gear for hands-free use.

Is the Waydoo Subnado Plus suitable for beginners and children?

Yes. A gentle Low gear and a hands-free cruise mode make it easy for newcomers to get started, while experienced divers can switch to High or Super Gear for full power. As with any powered water device, children should always use it under adult supervision.

Can I attach a GoPro or action camera?

Yes. The Subnado Plus includes an accessories mount compatible with standard action-camera fittings, so you can attach a GoPro or similar camera and film your dives hands-free.

Can I use the Subnado Plus in saltwater, pools and lakes?

Absolutely. The IP68-rated, sealed and corrosion-resistant housing is designed for salt water, fresh water, pools and lakes. We recommend rinsing the scooter with clean fresh water after each use in salt or chlorinated water to keep it in top condition.
