Take two bladders and sandwich them together.  Hookup your LP inflator hose
from the main bladder, and put a piece of bicycle innertube around the
backup LP inflator and the main LP hose.  (So that it doesn't snag and it
stays neatly tucked beside the primary hose.)  In a lights out situation,
you know exactly which hose you have in your hand, plus, in case of BC
failure, you also know where the backup inflator is.  Also, never hook up
your backup bladder unless you are using it.
If there is a better way guys, clue me in...but the above is the way I
learned it.

What is the DIR configuration for bouyancy
redundancy when not diving dry?
If it's a second set of wings, where and how
is the inflator stowed?
If this info is readily available elsewhere on the
net, please redirect me!
Thanks for your time.
