I use the Trimix version of the Spare Air.

I've seen those around. How well does it work for you?

I use a 6cf attached to the backplate for drysuit inflation and AL40 and/or AL80 as deco bottles.
 
A 19 cu ft for all my dives (although a 30 would have been a better choice). I carry additional tanks if I feel I need them (doubles or larger stages)
 
19 cu ft for a reasonable ascent from all recreational depth, non-deco dives.

Good diving, Craig
 
I went with a AL40 that I sling. I dive a HP 130 and wanted to get something that would get me close to having 1/3 gas in reserve.
 
I have a 13 cu for <60 ft dives, and a 19 for > 60 ft dives.
I also have a 30, but have yet to use it, just couldn't pass on the purchase price.
I like the 19 the most for how it floats under my left arm. It's (the 19) big enough for my needs, but not too big to get in the way.

Depending on the dive it can vary from a Shetland to a pair of Percherons ...
