At any price, there is no reason not to have a signal like this with you. Smaller than a large man's fist when deflated, this little safety sausage is decent quality, and has a solid clip that you can attach to your BC if neccessary.

It inflates pretty quickly, but doesnt have an auto-inflate like the fancier models. It also barely takes up any space. Even if you dont have pockets on your BC, you could clip this and forget about it.

I've carried one ever since a large boat almost left without a buddy pair once. They 3rd world dive charters arent always reliable, and if the couple hadnt been holding up a bright orange sausage, the crew probably would have missed them and the day been real bad!

Visual and Audible: I carry a whistle and this. While its not the biggest signal out there, its worth having.
