Actually not anymore than anyone else...

The only thing I know is they are progressing with the Tachyon nicely as well as making OEM parts for other manufacturers.

I have been begging for a long time to do some beta-test since I have always been in love with the Tachyon-concept (i.e. size, weight, GF, etc). And it looks increasingly that might happen soon... :)

Phi,

Did they get the military contract? Have they sold/provided any to them?

Sorry, I don't know that information.

Just email Phil Straw and ask...

Hey Guys,

Their website is back up with products now listed as available.

The Tachyon shows 60 days till it ships but they do have some other items for sale now including an interesting KISS Conversion kit

Worth checking out, here is the webpage link:
Heliox.com

Regards,
Ryan

That's pretty much the same old stuff they had before.
Don't think it's really up to date.
"When will Tachyon be released?
We anticipate releasing the Tachyon during Q4.2005"

Send a couple of e-mails and tried by phone a few times
since I did my DEMA report on the DiveDrive, never reached
anyone, never had any answers from them.

IMHO, if you want to order pay C.O.D. ...

If their website truly is back up, someone should politely tell them to fix their homepage (www.heliox.com). It is still down, and has been for over a YEAR..cant help business much.

jasonvds · 5th April 2007, 13:28

No it is still down, that products page and all the internals have always been available...

DivnSapper · 5th April 2007, 13:36

OK... my mistake... I've just always ended up at the "this site is Under Construction" page.

Off of Google today I've got through to the 'new' one... well at least new to me.

Oh well... maybe Phi can fill us in on the detailed timing (other than very soon!)
