    Never dive without it. Has alerted the boat many, many times over the years.

    Simple to employ and very effective.

    The air part work perfectly but the H2O part does not work at all only makes a lot of bubbles and no qwacking sound.Maybe just to stupid to work the bloody thing.

    It is designed to work in air only, not UW.

    It is primarily a surface location device, nothing more. Bang on your tank if you need to attract your buddy's attention UW.

    It does what it's designed to do, and very well at that.

    My bad.

    Didn't notice the "Plus" and what it meant - a new model. I'm on my second "Air" one, and can't recommend it too highly.

    Haven't seen the UW one yet. There must be a gear review done on that in some dive mag that you could access.
    Here we go:
