So I purchased a Stealth 2 BC and took it out for a dive the next day. I loved the BC and I was trimmed out and my buoyancy was spot on...so well in fact that I could, with a bit less than normal breathing, be about 6 inches from the bottom. Keep in mind I don't let things dangle(I hate that) and get onto my son all the time about his octo. I was able to just have the best time!

Well near the end of the dive I could not stay down..I checked and one of the weight pouches was missing. I checked them beforehand and they seemed to be OK.

I contacted Edge and got in touch with Chris. I told him when and where I got the BC and what happened. He is sending me new ones! That is what I call customer service!

I think because it was hanging on the rack and people could just yank and put them back in or whatever and may have messed it up a bit.

I have tried other BC's and did not like them because of the wrap around made me feel constricted and they were bulky. With the Stealth 2 I did not have that issue. While the one I have cannot carry doubles, I don't need it to at this time. Some people have said that on the surface it pushes you face forward, I have not had that issue. Something else I like about it is that it is not all fluffy and I only use 16lbs of lead with an AL80 plus I use Jets. I am 260lbs 5'9".
 
4lbs each pocket...I tried 4s in the back and 2lbs in the fronts but was a bit under. The extra 4 compensates for the AL@500
