If you dive in close proximity with a buddy (as you should, thus the term buddy

) light is the best method for attracting attention. It is fast, instantaneous and goes a long way using the right type of light.

If you need something to find your buddy because you don't dive close enough to keep in visual contact, the u/w horns will work but based on my own experience, they don't last long. And the sound isn't loud enough to be heard over a DPV.

Thanks for the advice on the buddy term!!

well, the thing is that we were both scootering and it was very bad vis conditions and when one stops for something, how can i alert the other one that he has to stop as well. even if he checks every minute then you can still get lost.

which horns did you use? is there a specific one?

Thanks for letting me know.
