The compact Reference is equipped with a unique emergency drive switch as a standard feature. The emergency drive switch is part of its own circuit which maintains drive operation in the event of an electronic failure. Cave divers, in particular, highly appreciate this safety feature. The runtime up to 300 minutes can only be achieved by other makes at the cost of a much greater dead weight. In the Reference this is only 19 kg (incl. trim and battery). This puts an end to strenuous equipment humping even for demanding diving missions. Use an efficient Bonex drive with state-of-the-art accumulator technology.
