The plastic cap with the magnet fits so tightly that it is very difficult to remove. This makes it practically unusable under water. Waste of money.

The jingle can’t be heard by dive buddies once underwater. Too delicate a sound.

This noisemaker works as expected. The cap stays on and the magnet is strong so it doesn't make unnecessary noise underwater.

My buddy and I lost our group last time we dove (water wasn't very clear) and used my camera's handle to hit the tank and make noise so we can be found. It worked but after that experience I decided to buy the real thing.This noise maker is very noisy outside the water. It produces a vibrating sound that should go far under water. I can't wait to try it in my next dive.It is bigger than it looks in the pics. The cap is really tight, so it shouldn't fall, but maybe hard to remove with gloves.I recommend it for the price.

This was unusable for me. It takes two hands to use--to remove cap to enable and then replace cap to avoid constant rattle. The sound is not loud enough. Needs redesign.

I haven't used it under water yet. It makes very loud ding noises, but you can cap it off so it's silent. Don't know if it will make noise in water unintentionally if cap off, will need to find out. made very heavy duty and sturdy. I think it will work fine.

I have used this on a few dives now. It's good for alerting your dive buddy. But the noise is not very loud so I wouldn't recommend for a DM or Instructor in charge of a big group.Also, make sure to check the magnetic rubber stopper is attached before you dive or everyone is going to be very angry.

I've been told that even with the caps these things annoy other divers. Not this one. Unless you mount it on your fins or something, mine has been completely silent unless I pull the cap off.Purchased for work to alert other divers when I need to leave the research pool, as they might be 50ft away. Works great for that. I leave it on my BCD all of the time, even on rec dives.

Work perfectly, it perfectly loud enough. I know some folks have criticized it for not being loud enough, but those are likely also the same folk that you dive with that are always making noise under water that scare everything into hiding, ya you know who I'm talking about. I retied the cap on mine, and haven't had a single issue with it. Have used it on over 20 dives thus far and its great.

These work really well for communicating with your dive buddy or a group. The rubberized cap makes them silent when you don't want them to make noise but very easy to access and use when you do. Bought a second one.

The shaker works great BUT the muffler fell off on one of the first dives I used it (apparently the laynard was not well attached) and was lost at sea. Now it is just plain annoying as it rattles like crazy unless it is stored away in a pocket which makes it much harder to use.
