Myself, I have backup:
Light(s)
Cutter
Mask
SMB
Reel
Air supply
Depth gauge
Timer
Bouyancy source
Same here plus:

Slate
Drop line

Loads of topside backups also as Matt pointed out.

One thing..
I think the term redundant is a misnomer, the best definition I could find is:

re·dun·dant &nbsp; &nbsp;( P ) &nbsp;Pronunciation Key &nbsp;(r-dndnt)
adj.

&nbsp; 1. Exceeding what is necessary or natural; superfluous.
&nbsp; 2. Needlessly wordy or repetitive in expression: a student paper filled with redundant phrases.
&nbsp; 3. Of or relating to linguistic redundancy.
&nbsp; 4. Chiefly British. Dismissed or laid off from work, as for being no longer needed.
&nbsp; 5. Electronics. Of or involving redundancy in electronic equipment.
&nbsp; 6. Of or involving redundancy in the transmission of messages.

A better term would be backup or secondary systems. IMHO of course &nbsp;

Stu.
