I have decided to purchase the Halcyon 3.3 SMB and will be inflating it orally majority of the time at depth; which is the right one for me to buy the oral inflate only or the lp inflate? Thanks
 
it must have

No-Lock® connector for closed-circuit devices; oral inflate or LP hose connection
it looks so :

The inflator shown in the picture can be inflated orally or via the BC inflator hose. If you're inflating at depth, oral inflation is more than adequate.

The oral inflate only one is more of a 'safety sausage'

As suggested, you want the LP inflator one that you can also orally inflate very easily. Id recommend getting a nice 150' defender spool with a double ended bolt snap to go with it. Combined they make one of the most effective back up SMB's / drift diving marker and ascent tools available.

They are mandatory in my classes and we keep them stowed assembeld in a thigh pocket.
