ES601, I use a 6 cu.ft. pony on shallow solo dives. It really won't come anywhere near fitting in bc pocket. It's 14" long. Remember that you also have another first and second stage regulator to deal with. The whole set-up weighs, I think, 5 lbs. and requires 2 lbs. to be removed from diving weights. The Quick Draw bracket does not fit this small tank so you will have to improvise. I used a bc tank strap, had 2 smaller velcro straps (to go around pony) sewn on, and the whole system slides over the top of the AL 80. If you do something like this with a small pony make certain you have calculated SCR to know that air supply will satisfy your needs. Also practice deployment in a safe environment.
