Get your buddy’s attention — instantly and underwater.

Communication underwater can be challenging, especially when visibility drops or excitement takes over. This essential diver shaker solves that problem fast.

Inside the robust metal tube sits a stainless steel ball that creates a sharp, attention-grabbing sound when shaken. The noise travels clearly through the water, allowing you to alert your buddy without swimming over or waving frantically.

A smart magnetic locking system keeps the shaker silent and secure when not in use — no rattling, no distractions, and no snagging on your gear. When you need it, a quick movement frees it for immediate signaling.

✔ Clear, audible sound underwater
✔ Magnetic quick-lock prevents unwanted noise
✔ Compact, streamlined and easy to access
✔ Strong stainless steel construction for durability
✔ Perfect for buddy communication in any dive environment

Stay connected. Stay safe. Keep this must-have signalling tool as part of your standard dive kit.
