I think that about covers most everything. I primarily dive quarries near me, so the water temps can range between 89+ degrees (bath water) in the shallows in the summertime to 42 degrees (refreshingly cool
) at depth year round. I am not at all shy about mixing & matching some of my gear for recreational diving (drysuit, masks, lights & such) when needed. The only thing I can say I'm not super crazy about is the Datamask. It is a great concept & very good computer, but it is almost too big for my face & so it doesn't play well with a hood, without leaking (no, I don't have the skirt under it, the hood pushes the mask down). With the Datamask, it is also difficult, if not impossible to use the right hand to equalize the ears with thick gloves on. Because of the placement of the computer, it restricts the nose pocket access. Other than that, I do like the Datamask, just wish it came in a slightly smaller size.
