Anybody had similar experience after adding a 6cf inflation bottle?
Just try it. With the 6 cu ft bottle, I use the GI technique to mount the argon bottle right on my waist strap. When I use a leash, the leash crosses the argon bottle without any problems. I often switch between argon inflation and inflation using only backgas, and I'm able to use the same length leash. There's no way of knowing if you'll need a longer leash until you try it.
BTW, not sure why you'd use a leash with only 2 deco bottles... Carrying 2 up really isn't really that onerous. By adding a leash with 2 bottles, you seriously increase your chance of losing one of them.
