UV 26 /18 Scooter (s) and TEKNA project
I have a SS UV-26 with a 18 conversion, or a UV 18 with a 26 conversion, depending on if you are left handed or right handed. It is in good shape, the batteries for the 18 portion are new Genesis batteries, ( I can run about 100 minutes on them), only about 12 dives on them, dated October 2014. The 26 batteries need to be replaced. $2250 OBO.
I have another UV-18, well kinda sorta. It started out from SS as one of their original ni-cad scooters with the old Saft battery in it. The ni cads died, and I put a pair of 20ah batteries , the same one that are in a Tekna or Mako, and it works great. Batteries about a year old, maybe 20 dives, I can get 75 minutes on them. It is the same weight and size as the UV 18. $1750.00 OBO.
Now, I have not tried to run either scooter until the batteries were dead, I have not burn tested them, your times may be better or worse.
Both are black, round, and look the same as every other UV 18 in the world, but I will try to get pictures if requested.
I also have a TEKNA DV3x with a good condition travel case. It is apart, not together, in bags, pieces not assembled. It did run well for years, and I decided it needed new O rings and seals. There were some cracked bulkheads, I replaced or repaired them. It has a new shaft seal. I have most of the O rings. It needs a new motor compartment O ring and someone with enough patience to rub all of the damn silicone sealant off of the o ring mating surfaces at the motor bulkhead. There are no batteries or charger with it, but I have the charger plug. $300.00.
Anyone typing in only "dibs" will be cursed with a old Arabic curse, "may the fleas of 1000 camels infest your pee valve."
