I own a set of double Faber 45's. They sit very low to my back, are better balanced than a single, and in certain circumstances they were the right tanks for the job. One example of that was an ice dive I did last winter. Max depth of 20 feet, bu 14 inches of ice overhead. I didn't need the volume of my double 72, but I wanted the redundancy of double first stages, in the event of a freeze up or major freeflow.
As an aside, they are just plain fun to play around with, and were great to do shallow training dives for my intro to tech class, where I needed to be profficient in valve shut downs.
