Unlike other extreme activities, scuba diving is one where you can’t quench your thirst. Designed with this in mind, the Scubar makes it possible to stay hydrated even when you’re underwater! This specialized water bottle dispenses capsules made of gelatin, filled with water. Simply replace your oxygen mouthpiece with Scubar and “drink” up! The saliva soluble capsules will dissolve, delivering much needed H2O to your bod, extending the amount of time you can stay under.

Seems like a stupid thing to need a water bottle underwater, doesn’t it? You’d be surprised! Sea Water isn’t potable and should under no circumstances be consumed, given its salt content… so when scuba divers go diving, it’s a good idea to have access to drinking water. How would one drink water underwater, though?! Spongebob seems to do it just fine (there are swimming pools under the sea, according to nickelodeon!), but in reality, it’s impossible. Scubar however does something quite clever. The bottle holds water capsules that one can chew to release the water inside. Each capsule is the equivalent of a gulp of water, making the Scubar the first and a highly innovative solution to under-water thirst!
