I wear a 2.5 MM wetsuit with a Faber 117HP tank.
Sorry, I missed the bit about diving in a wetsuit. The backup for a buoyancy cell is either a drysuit or a reel and DSMB with some floatation to it.
For the record, a Faber 117 has an inwater weight of more than four and a half kilos when filled... and barely weighs 500 grams when empty... lots of gas. Not a huge fan of dumping ballast as the end result is often a ballistic or at best an uncontrolled ascent.
Do the math, do some in-water research and act accordingly... and as already stated, inspect your gear.
