Beginners accessory kit?

[Scuds]

So after bothering you all for days and days, I've finally decided and/or purchased all the main gear, fins, mask, snorkel, bc, reg, gauges, computer... What is the rest of the recommended gear? Light, knife, o-ring kit, etc? Just trying to get everything together as best as I can. Thanks once again all!

edit: I forgot to mention I have a wetsuit and weights also!

The Scubaboard search function pretty much sucks, but if you type

into Google you'll get some results. Try

"save a dive kit" site:www.scubaboard.com

as well.

Always carry..........

A big see-me tube (doubles as DSMB or SMB) a yellow Carter 35lb Personal Float.....and later you can add a small reel as previously suggested..........

A Storm whistle...........

A LED light..........mine is a ScubaPro Fuego

These are for signaling if you find yourself alone on the surface............

EMT shears are also on my belt........for my second cutting tool I carry a folding Spyderco..........

Hope this helps................M

Work on stuff that can get you rescued first ... SMB & Spool ... Rescue whistle ... small backup light ... Mirror ... EMT shears
and try to find a way to carry them on almost/every dive

then on stuff that can help you make a dive ... tools, O rings, wetsuit glue, and the like

smb and spool are good but make shure you know how to use them before you get them and where and what type of diving do you do this also determans the accesories needed?
