Thanks, any idea where I could purchase these drop rings? Razor is charging $16 a pop. Don't see anything like it on DGX.
Unless you put a lift bag which still has gas in it, the pouch will almost for sure sink not float. Mine carries cave survey instruments and tools.Do most people have these pouches hanging off the door handles? Not going to be too much of a snagging hazard? I suppose with sufficient number of items in there it won't be too floaty?

IME, If the grommets aig enough to drain quickly, usually means the knot has to be too big, and/or the grommet hole's function as a drain gets compromised, either from being clogged with the bungie knot, or from being clogged with rocks that gets washed into the usual too large drain hole.
Even makers that make stuff purposed for underwater use tend not to get the drain hole right. I have only seen a drain size hole covered in screening on BCD drain holes. The pouch makers miss that detail usually which means sand and rocks gets in the drain at times, if it is actually large enough to function as an effective drain hole.
Which is actually another reason to use the soldering iron: to add a number of drain holes that are too small to allow much stuff in, and large enough by shear number to allow quick-ish draining.

How do you get the pouch around to get stuff out of it?
Or do you only have a lift bag in there?
