Hello, I'm new to the scubaboard but I have been lurking for some time. I was introduced to DIR a few years back and have been DIR ever since. One thing that I have done a few searches on is diving without your primary light or for those that have not made the investment into the primary light yet. Those searches came up empty, so onto my idea/question.
Would it be DIR to use a Zeagle trim weight pouch, which can be slid onto the waistband, as a way to mimic the light being there?
The idea is to add the amount of weight to the pouch that your particular light is negative. This way you have a place to hook your long hose under, and when you do decide to dive with the light the balance of your rig should not change much if any. Simply slide the pouch off and add the light.
In therory this seems like a good idea. People are always looking for ways to take weight off the weightbelt and you could ditch this like you could ditch a light if you needed to reduce your negative weight.
Here is the trim weight pouch I'm talking about...
