If you're going night diving buy a good strobe, like a Jotron AQ4, they might be expensive but they can be seen a long way off. I'd rather be on the boat while they look for someone else than have them looking for me.
That particular light stick thingy is a good design (if it's the one I'm thinking about). It's bright enough to be seen almost 15m in 5m vis. I think that's visible enough.
