DESCRIPTION
The Scub-Alert is very compact in size. Only the best quality components are used in manufacturing of the Aquatec Scub-Alert. The loud resonating frequency generated by this horn can be heard on the surface approximately half a mile away (1 kilometer). The Scub-Alert is not only starting to be a major requirement for many live-aboard and dive operations; it is also an essential piece of gear that will add to the enjoyment of the dive to any buddy team that needs to get each other's attention underwater.

The Scub-Alert is an underwater horn that allows you to signal your dive buddy effortlessly by the press of a button. Use this underwater horn to get your dive partner's attention both in emergency situations or just to show them something interesting. This horn generates a loud "quacking" sound by using tiny pulses of air to rapidly vibrating a steel disk.

This product it’s excellent for underwater, you can make noise and all the divers around can hear you and any fish get scare for the noise. But on the surface it’s not that loud, that’s the only problem that it has.

I am a full time SCUBA instructor that dives almost daily. I like an air powered underwater horn to obtain the attention of wandering students. The underwater noise level on this device is so low, that divers simply ignore it. What I need is a Hammerhead. I used a Hammerhead for years. Rebuilt it several times. Unfortunately the company no longer makes it and mine finally fell apart. To bad a company does not reproduce the quality and noisemaking ability of the Hammerhead. Do not spend [$] on this Aquatec alert device. A tank banger works as well

      Comments about Aquatec Scub Alert Under Water Signaling Device, Fits Sea Quest Air Source - Zeagle Octo Plus - Beuchat Venturi & Oceanic Air-XS (SA-2):

      I purchased this product because it was supposed to have dual use - below surface and on surface as an emergency signal. It’s not very loud on the surface. Works as advertised submerged with the quacking sound, but doesn’t work as discussed in the reviews in both applications. I doubt a boat could hear me beyond 30 yards.

      Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

        I bought two of them. Tried one several times during dives underwater. My wife could not hear it from 10 feet away. Totally useless.

        Works Well — Quacks like a Duck

        Comments about Aquatec Scub Alert Under Water Signaling Device, Fits Sea Quest Air Source - Zeagle Octo Plus - Beuchat Venturi & Oceanic Air-XS (SA-2):

        I found that the device worked well to signal my buddy on my recent warm-water dives. I think two (or more) divers could work out a signaling system, or use Morse code to communicate with these as well. Some might say that it makes an entertaining quacking noise after the dive is over ;-)

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
