Read this review. about diving and snorkeling

The refill works but the included pencil makes it useless as it is so small and light it's really unreadable underwater. I went to Ace Hardware and bought a grease pencil to replace the one that came with it.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Other Other

Glows in the dark but requires a strong pen to write underwater

Love the fact that this tablet glows in the dark so it can be used for night diving. One downside is that it comes with a regular pencil and you need a fat pencil to write under it. It would be nice if it came to that.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Fair

Better than pictured

This is not shown in the picture but the tablet has a buckle that allows you to detach it from the BC to show someone, the clip attaches to the D-ring of the BC remains. This is a bit easier to do with gloves on than trying to manipulate the clamp. The only downside is that immersion in water will show the pencil serious signs of failure and make it difficult to remove old notes from the slate. A great tool if you plan to dive with a new group that doesn't have much experience diving together.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • ---

Additional information required

Product was received as described but cleaning information was not included. My niece had this on her gift list as a new diver and when she marked on the board with the pencil provided to check, she couldn't figure out how to wipe the board clean. We searched the internet for information and found a post that suggested using the Magic Eraser to do this. Why sell a product for underwater use without a brief explanation of how to use it? It would help buyers understand whether they want to playโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Defects present

Good product. Make sure to use Magic Eraser to clean it up!

Excellent product. Just received and tested in my kitchen sink. The pencil could have been better, but okay. I can confirm that Mr Clean Magic Eraser is the way to go for cleaning. Really works like magic! First I tried to clean the paper tower and soap but it didn't work, the lettering faded but was still clearly visible. Magic Eraser removed the inscription COMPLETELY, 100%. If for some weird reason ;-) you don't already have the Magic Eraser, just buy it and keep it in the same bag as yourโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Quick start guide

Great price and great product as advertised

It arrived on time (2 days free shipping), The pencil was attached with a yellow HiVis ribbon. I tested the Scribbles to see the clarity and writing surface and was very happy with the quality and contrast. It has a snap closure that works well and is very easy to manipulate. I took it to the Rescue Divers class next weekend and it came in really handy. Finding a missing diver, my new buddy and I communicated easily. Of course we could have used hand signals, but it helped with adhesionโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Weight

I find it best in the shower!

I've never been scuba diving but it's one of my favorite things! when I was stuck in the shower and didn't have access to my usual Brilliant Ideas notebook. It saved my life; Before I used it, everything I was thinking about while showering *poof* disappeared from my brain as soon as I got out of the shower. So I lost some brilliant ideas. Sniff. This underwater notepad solved that problem and works great! Notes are not washed off with water. The thing is characterized by a simple design andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Almost never

GREAT for pool use, mediocre for diving

I'm a scuba diver but I'm also returning to swimming for fitness and triathlon. I use it for swimming training. As part of my swim training, I do sprints and try to keep track of my time. This tablet is great for this type of use. I put it on the deck at the end of the pool and then start sprinting against the clock. When I finish a sprint, I write the date, distance, and time of the sprint on the whiteboard. Then I do another, and another, and another. At the end of a workout, I transfer myโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable
