What is the best way to mount your Spare Air 3.0 Unit to your BC?

[jonscubas]

I had it mounted in a neoprene case with two bolt snaps, the upper snap connected to the left chest d-ring and the lower snap to the left waist d-ring. It takes up a lot of space and makes it harder to utilize my d-rings for other gear, including staging a tank.

I'm thinking about having a case sewn to my be shoulder strap, or move it to my bc waist belt.

I want to have more clear space to work with and utilize my d-rings with less clutter, but still be able to get to my spare air easily, and most important effortlessly.

How are you spare air 3.0 owner's mounting yours on a dive? What method has worked or is best for you? Maybe I can try your methods of mouting the canister?

I don't believe your BC is the best place to mount your Spare Air. I'd suggest rigging it to your flight suit.

Your talking about "staging" a tank and wearing a spare air in the same sentence?

BWAAAAAAAAAAAA

Damn I hate it when I agree with you.

... but can cause conscience niggles.

I wonder if you could rig something to your webbing with a bolt snap like the way some mount scout lights.

You may want to start a poll: Who uses/would never use/ a can of spare air for scuba diving??

You may want to consider investing in a little bit bigger pony bottle than just a can of spare air. People here debate endlessly against ponies smaller than 20 or 30 cu ft. And that is 10 times what your spare air can holds.

on SCUBA would be in a pocket on my wetsuit so I would have a little air in the event I needed to ditch my entire rig.

Classic Walter, Classic. Wish I would have said that:boom:

By the way, I hope you never really need that Spare Air, you probably won't be here to tell us about it. Give it or better yet throw it away and buy a real pony as mentioned earlier.
