Buddy Pocket Reel & A.P.Valves Smb with Bottle
Superior compact reel with a superior SMB, definatley the best package on the market.
Buddy Pocket Reel:
The reel is wound with 45m of floating line - manufactured to our own specifications for the optimum combination of strength and flotation.The cord has a breaking strain of 50kg and the advantage of being positively buoyant which means that it will rise above the sea-bed or wreckage when played out and so help avoid entanglement.If the line is accidently wound all the way into the reel body, the end is easily identified and recovered by means of a large attached O ring.
AP Valves SMB with Bottle
The self-sealing BUDDY SMBCi (Surface Marker Buoy - Closed with Inflation Cylinder) features a lightweight aluminium mini-cylinder (0.1 litre) which is mounted at the foot of the buoy just above the internal baffle.
Available in Bright Red, HiViz Red & Yellow, or as an all-Yellow Signal Buoy.
Simply attach a line or reel and you have a superb decompression marker buoy and also a buoy that can be used as a standard surface marker.
The SMBCi features a lightweight aluminium mini-cylinder (0.1 litre) which is mounted at the foot of the buoy just above the internal baffle.
Cylinder Dimensions: 0.1 litre - 115mm x 50mm diam.
Easily replenished from the main cylinder, the mini-cylinder is small enough to fold unobtrusively inside the SMB to be stowed in pouch or pocket.
Deployment is simply a question of unfurling the SMB and cracking open the cylinder

Scubapro Reel & Sealing SMB
Quite simply the best - this reel from Scubapro sets a new standard for scuba diving reels, and the Beaver SMB is the perfect companion for it.
More Details Below:
Scubapro Reel
The groundbreaking design of SCUBAPROs multifunction reel has set new standards of comfort and safety.
The unique design has now eliminated the need for more than one type of reel.
A split handle locks into a toothed disc so the ratcheted mechanism allows for secure locking when SMB's and lifting bags have been deployed.
The insertion of a side button into the handle allows the reel to free spool without a diver having to hold the locking mechanism in place.
This ensures a diver does not perform an uncontrolled ascent if insufficient force is used to operate the mechanism.
The free spooling operation also makes wreck and cave diving much easier by reducing task loading.
In addition to the above feature the reel's winding knob can be folded into the body for streamlined stowage and the line guide plate is positioned flush to the reel body preventing line spillage.
Beaver SMB
Heavy duty poly-vinyl self sealing surface marker buoy with dump valve & line attachment point.Displays diver's location on the surface during ascent. Includes handy storage pouch
