My 2" SPG w/ 1/4" HP hose setup, below. I clip the hose onto 2 rings along the right shoulder strap of the BCD (one of them in the OEM D ring, the other one is custom ring I sew it on the shoulder strap, above the OEM D ring, see the picture, below), attach the hose onto the rings with snap-on double C-rings (see the black figure 8 clips in the picture). Also I put snap-on magnet button (red & black) to keep the SPG from dangling around. When I want to read it, I just yank it off from the magnet. When I'm done with it, I just let it go. The SPG would automatically snaps back in place.
This SPG is actually a back up to my Suunto Cobra2 dive computer console that I put it in my left BCD pocket. Just in case it's battery dies while on the long dive trip, then I have the SPG as the back up pressure reading.
Occasionally I compare the SPG pressure reading with that of Cobra2. I found it to be low. I checked it with LDS tech. He said my SPG is indeed reading a bit low, but within 5% error in the low end (1000 psig instead of 1050 psig). The Cobra2 is right on the money.
I wear my primary dive computer, Suunto D4, on right wrist. Having the same brand (Suunto) is also good (the same diving algorithm). I used to have Scubapro SmartCom as my backup computer that drove me nut due to different diving algorithm.
