For warm water diving and travel, I get by with 4 trim weight pockets mounted on my 2 cam bands. I prefer ones with clips as opposed to Velcro.

I do use a weight belt at work so that anyone else handling my rig doesn't have to lift it with added weight.
 
I ended up going with a Halcyon single tank adapter with a 6lb lead weight installed. Hopefully with that, 2 trims @ 4/5 lbs & a HP steel 117 I should be solid for my saltwater adventures.
