Some cave divers prefer independent citing issues like reduced snag hazard etc. In theory as theyre 2 totally separate systems something like a manifold failiure cannot possibly lose all your gas (that said a failiure on independent means you will lose half your gas).
Cost is the main issue i use them - can use 2 normal tanks without the expense of dedicating tanks to twins, buying manifolds, backplates etc. Very easy config to swap between single and twin tank use (just the case of changing a cam strap and takes 2 mins).
which BC did u use?
thx
