Is there much of a difference between these two? I can't see one from the one picture DUI-online shows me. Some people on this board have voiced an opinion one way or the other, but not given many reasons beyond why they had a harness in the first place. Is one easier to fit? I'm a big guy, 6'3" and near 290. I have done a search, but nobody seems to discuss the differences between these two.

I currently use about 24 lbs on my belt in cold water and a 7mm wetsuit. Not fun. I use a Halcyon Eclipse. I have considered going with a weighted STA, but the LDS wants $120 for it, and the DUI systems run a bit less than that. I am looking to get this bloody weight off of my hips.

Cold water is the only local water I've got. When I dive warm, I'm not needing any weight beyond ~10 lbs. That I can easily live with on a belt.
