Me too! I didn't test the float though since I didn't want to get it wet.

This is how mine is set up. I put the camera case in my BCD pocket & the camera case is bungeed into the BCD pocket zipper handle.

That's the ACR 2881 I currently carry.
I've read that the ACR 2881 will not fit in that one without shaving some of the antenna off, but that worked ok?
Will they ship to the US? How much. When I try an order to see, the price drops from £78 to £65 but it looks like you have to buy it, then their rep will contact you about shipping.

Don't use the soft case (Kona). When I took it to >100' deep, the bag did not leak, but the pressure pressed the red emergency button to on. See the red light turned on in the picture, below. The light turned off by itself when I ascent to 80' deep. So, I went back to the Sony camera case that is good down to 130' (40m).

Not sure why it turned off on its own, once I ascent to from 100 to 80' deep. It was turned on for only a quick dip into 104' depth for less than 5 minutes.
The emergency button got turned on because of the protective yellow flap plate flexed under pressure. Apparently Ocean Signal did not leave enough clearance or consider for the plate to flex under such pressure. They only rate it up to 49' (15m). So it was ridgid enough down to 80' (25m).
I'll do the battery test as suggested by OEM when I'm back home in a couple of days.
