I tried to place diverite pouches on my SS BP/W waist webbing and had no problems in the tropics. When I returned back to MT, I was fetching weights for an OW class and set my rig down in waist deep water to get them from shore and watched it sink to the bottom. Diving a HP119 Steel, DUI drysuit with a 27# wing and had about 14-16 lbs of lead. Good thing it was only waist deep. I picked up a weight belt, bought some additional webbing for the suspenders and built a weight harness. I use it all the time, MT and tropics with wetsuit. I like the harness since I don't worry about the weights slipping off my hips. The diverite quick release allow me the opportunity to ditch it needed and don't interfere with the crotch strap or waist belt webbing. Since I already had the weight pouches, I decided against purchasing the DUI weight harness. System works great for me.
