Considering Purchasing an Aqua Lung Lotus I3 BCD

[Jtim321]

I am relatively new to diving (about 25 ) And an starting to purchase my own equipment. I dived locally, as well Travel to warmer areas. I like the idea of the I3 system, But wonder if it's a good BCD for me & my needs. I have gone to many LDS hoping to demo it but have had no luck. So in a attempt to make an informed purchase, I would love to hear from any ladies or men who use this style and their opinions of it.
One thing that I've heard by talking to locals is that the lever has a tendency to get caught when Maneuvering through kelp and seaweed (lots of that in Southern California), Inflating unexpectedly during dives.

Look forward to hearing from you.
