Ok no ones really interested. I just hate all the wieght I have to carry when dry suit diving (24lbs plus my HP100). I have 2 5lb soft weights in my trim pockets and 14 lbs of soft weight on my belt.

Dive twin 119's - problem solved.

PS - As I'm in marketing - and deal with engineers and R&D/development people all day long - I hope you wont mind if I have a chuckle at the not-terribly-surprising concept of an engineer proposing a design change that is an infinitesimally small improvement to the current option at 10x the cost, and then wonders why no-one else embraces the idea.

What's next? Titanium weights, in order to make them light enough to travel with?

:D
