For me the biggest factor in not purchasing a scooter is the lack of dive buddy's available that own scooters to dive with.  None of my regular dive buddy's own scooters so if I were to buy one it would really be a waste of money.  I'm not really into solo diving.  A scooter sure would be fun though and would allow you to explore many areas of lakes that you just cannot get to on a dive otherwise.  For local diving mainly shore diving it seems the route Kirk went with the full size UV-26 lead acid battery SS scooter might be a good option.  It's $250 cheaper than the N-19 NiMH battery scooter, has a longer burn time and handles better.  Sure, for a sight like the Madeira it would be a drag to haul down to the dive site and wouldn't be ideal for boat dives but if you think about how close the majority of the shore dive accesses are it probably wouldn't be so bad overall.  Here is the link to the SS line-up of scooters.
