Good Idea Gear

[Ajuva]

Ikeep an old CD in my BC pocket as a backup signalling device in the event of being not seen.

<DIV>Have any of you guys got an idea that you think would be a lifesaver for the rest of us?</DIV>

<DIV>Larry. you could see about getting CD blanks printed up with the logo on as a marketting freebie or a box stuffer with bigger orders!</DIV>

That is a good idea. It's alot cheaper than those signaling mirrors, and probably works pretty good, too.

I'm gonna take a laser disc, just to be safe.[img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

I won't dive the ocean without a smb, whistle and signal mirror

The whole CD idea is pretty good... I know they make pretty good prismatic mirrors. What might be a good idea for guys, is to put their personal info on the CD - address, scan of passport, medical info, emergency contact info, etc. Then you have a great backup of data... and if the mirror doesn't signal someone in time... at least they'll know where to ship the body!

And I know that sounds like I'm joking... but really, I think that would be a good idea! Dual purpose!

<DIV>That really is a good idea. You carry ID on you (generally) everywhere else so why not when you dive?!</DIV>

Oh of coz don't forget the CD will also make a good frisbie for some social gathering to overcome the stress, and a nice cyber-looking coaster for the hot chocolate after you got rescued[img]smileys/smiley20.gif[/img]

Larry, you should start stocking them.

<DIV>You don't carry your wallet with you when you dive? </DIV>

<DIV>Oh dear, I'm not very good at identifyingjokes sometimes ... if that was a serious question then nope ... where would you put it?? I know some people take their car keys with them, but nothing else.</DIV>
