How we calculate scores →About this gear
The Hollis DT45 Dual is a redundant-bladder wing intended especially for banded aluminium doubles in warm water. Hollis contrasts it with the DT50, which targets heavier cylinders and drysuit configurations. The circular air-cell layout and lower dump valve support a doubles rig with accessible venting points.
Consider before buying
The second bladder adds controls and requires a configuration appropriate to the diver’s training. Tank slots permit occasional single-cylinder use according to Hollis, but that does not make this a small single-tank travel wing. A backplate and harness are separate, and the complete configuration matters more than the wing’s standalone description.
Our take
Choose it for a doubles setup that calls for redundant buoyancy and fits the stated use. If you instead need a wing sized around mid-sized steel doubles, compare the Mariner 50 and its available bladder options. A Hollis DT-system article mentions the DT45 but does not supply an exact-model numeric overall rating. DT50 comments cannot be used to score this version.
