What accessory would you suggest to get your "buddies" attention. I recently descended with a woman that used her hands to pull herself forward in silt to get moving forward then really blacked things out when she started finning. Never looked back. I obviously lost her.

I have a Diver Alert but not the kind that sounds underwater. I want something easy to use, loud, and fast. I don't want to be searching in my BC pocket for it. Would a tank banger do the trick or is there something better?

A Reed's Rod http://twotankedproductions.com/equipmentsalesrental/reedsroddiveequip.html is the best tool out there! Look in the hand of the DM:

The Tool hanging in front of her! You can bang your tank or pock the person as well as pull yourself along in silt!

I can attest that Reed's Rod is built like a tank. You could probably use it as a crowbar to pry off that steel shipwreck beam off you in a last ditch effort! Nice anodizing on the aluminum handle too!
