Question Deepoutdoors EX Leg Pocket

Any one have any experiance with this as an extra gear pocket. My BCD is the Scubapro Knighthawk, and although I like the BCD, I don't like the fact that there is only one real pocket and it is a fold out lightweight one, so in reality, it really don't have an accessary pocket and I am trying to streamline my gear.
Suggestions and or reviews would be successful.
Thanks

Personally I think the pocket belongs on the leg, X shorts for a wetsuit are said to be fine. I use a drysuit and have a permenant pocket on it. My BP/W of course has no pockets and to be honest I've never missed them. My Mares V1 has pockets but to be honest, they're a PITA and I almost never used them anyways.

I was thinking of a similar solution as you...
Dive Rite Thigh Pocket, DIR and Technical, Dive Rite, Dive Rite Thigh Pocket
Another option is a pocket that you glue to the wetsuit with aquaseal...
OxyCheq G-Pocket, DIR and Technical, OxyCheq, OxyCheq G-Pocket

I am leaning toward the thigh pocket so I will be able to wear it regardless of wetsuit-I dive a 3mm in the warm water and a 7 in the cold. I have also seen pockets you can add to the BC but they dont hold much-I need a spot to put the smb and reel at the moment. Good luck.

I actually have the Oxycheq X-Pocket. It's more like the Dive Rite thigh pocket. The Oxycheq G pocket threads on the belt whereas the X-Pocket is on the thigh. I just like it down a little lower.

Edit: OOOPS my mistake. The G-Pocket is designed to be glued to a wet suit, so it would rest in the same place as the X-Pocket. But since I change exposure suits, the X-Pocket is still my choice.
