I have been diving a set of double AL80 and have had no problem moving to them from diving singles. I have 2 fx-120's that I have been thinking about doubling up, but I'm worried about the weight / trim issues. Doing the math, it seems like I would start the dive about 15lbs more negative than what I do now in the 80's (assuming all other gear is the same) and would end up at about 12lbs negative at the end of the dive, so I would still need to carry about 14 lbs on a weight belt. Anything that I am missing in my math or any other concerns with diving the 120's as doubles? You can see my math in the attached .xls to see what I am thinking.
Also, I'm a big guy at 6'4 and 230lbs so I'm not terribly concerned with the weight above water, but I do know it will suck lugging around above water.
