How much weight do you carry (warm water)?

[Perryed]

12 lbs of ditchable weight. At the end of a dive I`m neutral with 500psi at 10 ft. This is with a 3-2 wetsuit.

I’m lead-free... I use a SS backplate with a 2mm shorty and no lead weight, so 6lbs.

DR says the Trans-pac is 4.25 lb , plus 3 lead...puts me over the 7 lbs...

5'6" 145lb. with 3mm wetsuit, neutral fins (OMS slips), AL plate, AL80, I will put about 4-6lb on top camband

I do not understand the utility or purpose of this poll. There are far too many variables to the amount of weight carried if you disregard items such as regs, computers, backup gauges, fins, body type and body fat, boots, proficiency, experience, etc. The total amount of negative buoyant weight requirements, relative to the positive buoyant factors at the SS with 500 psi in the tank, are specific to an individual diver.

Utility of purpose? I think it`s just curiosity.

Might the utility in the poll be to compute an average among the respondents?

I'm not sure exactly how much the plate on the xDeep Ghost weight, but I carry 4lbs wearing a 2mm shorty.

I too am curious of the purpose of this poll.

Add whatever the wing is and ~ 5lbs for the ss bp to all the below weights

6' 190lbs

Fresh
7mm 2 piece - 100cf steel - 10lbs
3mm 1 piece - 80cf al - 2

Salt
Rash and shorts - 80cf al - 2
