Divers Direct

The LeisurePro one is a bit bulky. It also looks like a pipebomb, which has given me minor difficulties while travelling. The sound is related to how hard you shake it. It is a very dull sound. (I use this one)
The DiversDirect one looks like some I saw in the Bahamas. It is not as bulky. It has a very metallic sound.
Both are great when used in groups (like you are a tour guide and you want to point something out). When buddy diving, I only use mine if I stopped to take a picture or look at something and my buddy keeps swimming along.
Nothing replaces good buddy contact, but it is nice to have something to get your buddies attention if you need it.
Oh, almost forgot, sample the sound for your buddy when you get in the water. Some people will dismiss the sound when you are trying to get their attention.
They are annoying when diving off charters and everyone has them. They are going off from everywhere and you have no idea what to look at.
