Story

In 2017 Australian David Hallamore created the SCORKL – a device that enabled anyone to breathe freely underwater for up to ten minutes at a time. This year, we are introducing ‘SCORKL 2.0 – Electric’ featuring the ALL NEW SCORKL Electric Compressor and SCORKL Battery Pack.  With these two additions, the SCORKL is now refillable in a matter of minutes at the touch of a button. This means more time underwater, endless refills and the opportunity to take your SCORKL and your adventures completely off-grid.

The Creator

SCORKL creator David Hallamore grew up in the water on the east coast of Australia. An accomplished swimmer, surfer, Divemaster, freediver and fisherman, he feels most at home when exploring the underwater world. His passion led him to create SCORKL in 2017, a product that would be experienced and loved by 8,000 SCORKLERS worldwide.

What David loves most about SCORKL is the total freedom it offers anyone to connect with the ocean in the same way he has.

Reliability & Safety
The SCORKL is a safe, reliable product that has been tested and certified to the highest applicable international SCUBA performance and manufacturing quality standards. 

The SCORKL is Category III Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and has been certified under PPE Regulation (EU)2016/425 Module B and Module D. The harmonised standard used for testing was EN 250:2014. NOTE: Only elements of EN 250:2014 were applied. 

The standard EN250:2014 defines requirements, testing, markings and minimum performance standards for “Open-circuit self-contained compressed air diving apparatus”. The SCORKL is is certified for use to 6m / 20ft depth, at temperatures higher than 15°C / 60 °F.

Notified body involved in PPE conformity assessment: SGS Fimko Oy (Notified Body: 0598), P.O. Box 30 (Särkiniementie3), 00211 Helsinki, Finland.

The SCORKL is a safe and reliable product however it is important to realise that the SCORKL is not a toy. It is a highly engineered piece of equipment that needs to be used appropriately and cared for. There are potentially life-threatening risks associated with using the SCORKL, and breathing underwater, that you need to be aware of and take steps to avoid.

Risks and challenges
The SCORKL and ELECTRIC COMPRESSOR require high-precision manufacturing and high-quality materials since they both operate with air stored at high pressures. The BATTERY PACK is a power converter that requires a number of electronic parts, including safety switches, as well as cooling mechanisms. All components have already been manufactured to high quality during sample runs.

The primary risk is production delays. Coordinating with an overseas factory and maintaining quality throughout every step is a challenge. Fulfilment and shipping becomes a hurdle when dealing with thousands of orders. We will not rush through these steps and will tackle them carefully, one by one. We will take SCORKL 2.0 – Electric to the “design for manufacturing” step soon, and the target is to ship out units in December 2023.

There is some risk that items will not come exactly as pictured, due to manufacturing considerations. The promised function will not be different, and any style changes if any will be iterative and non-significant to the original look and feel.

As with any production, there are always variables that are not entirely under our control, but we are confident that by having a robust design and by working with trustworthy suppliers and manufacturers, we are reducing as many risks as possible to have a smooth production process and deliver on time.
