I use the TLS here in the PNW. The water is 41-48f, no thermoclines, pretty much year around. We don't get the warm surface water for deco that a lot of east coast divers and lake divers get in the summer. I use the 400g thinsulate and add thin capilene long johns on long dives. I can stand about 120minutes max. Longer with drygloves, and lots longer with a rebreather.
