DAN offers SMB with oral/power inflator in the middle part of the SMB, while the others have this inflator at the bottom SMB's end. So what are advantages/disadvantages of such inflator location while SMB shooting?

I own the DAN SMB shown. It has two inflate options, orally or at the bottom through a "duck bill" opening with your octo. I dont have any experience with the other SMBs shown. I preferr the DAN over any other I have seen. It is equiped with a mirror, glow stick and whistle in a pocket at the bottom. A reflective strip down one side would be very helpful in low light situations. Metal D rings make it easy to use.
