The trick with roll off is, being able to reach your posts' (all three) right,left, and isolator. You never know when you may have a free flow. As far as your dry suit inflator, not having a bottle of argon or at least air tends to get cold with a 35% helium mix. Not sure where you dive, but when I'm at 150' + it gets damn cold. My suggestion would be, contact your LDS about tech diving and the ramifications of doing so. Not that tech diving is dangerous, but, there requires much more preparation involved.

Btw, for some reason nomenclature in scuba seems to change when you start diving doubles or doing more advanced diving.

What you used to call a valve becomes a post.. unless its on a single cylinder or deco bottle then its still a valve.

A tank is only a tank when its worn on the back or sidemounted. Otherwise it's a bottle.

Your gear is now called your kit or your rig.

The generic word for the stuff you put in your tank is "gas" or depending on context "mix". Under no circumstances should it ever be called "air".

I'm sure there are others but I can't think of them at the moment.

you could call it compressed air as that what it is unless its nitrox or seomthing else..
