Product Information
The Hollis LX2 Weight System is a ditchable weight pocket set for Hollis backplate and harness divers, shipping as a pair of zippered, partitioned pouches that each hold 12 lb (5.4 kg) for 24 lb total. It replaces the older LX pocket and uses a simple pinch and pull buckle with a large nylon handle to ditch or carry weights.
Who it is for
This system suits backplate and harness divers who want ditchable ballast instead of a weight belt, and anyone adding trim and weight versatility to a Hollis harness. Because the pouches are reverse compatible with older Hollis backplates and harnesses, it is a practical upgrade path for divers still running the previous LX pocket, and it is listed by Hollis as an optional accessory for the HTS 2 harness.
Key details
- Capacity: 12 lb (5.4 kg) per pocket, 24 lb total as a pair
- Release: pinch and pull buckle with a large nylon ditch handle
- Construction: nylon with zippered compartments
- Partitions: internal dividers isolate weights so a partial load does not shift during the dive

Compatibility and sizing
The LX2 threads onto standard harness webbing and fits Hollis Solo, Elite 2, and HTS 2 harness systems. Hollis also states the system is reverse compatible with older Hollis backplates and harnesses, so it can be fitted to earlier rigs that used the original LX pocket.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much weight does the Hollis LX2 Weight System hold?
Each LX2 pocket holds 12 lb (5.4 kg), and because the system ships as a pair, total ditchable capacity is 24 lb. Internal partitions divide each pouch so a partial load, for example 5 lb, stays in place instead of sliding around during the dive. The zippered closure keeps the weights captured until you ditch.
Which Hollis harnesses does the LX2 fit?
The LX2 fits Hollis Solo, Elite 2, and HTS 2 harness systems and threads onto standard harness webbing. Hollis lists it as an optional accessory for the HTS 2 harness. It is also reverse compatible with older Hollis backplates and harnesses, so divers running the previous LX pocket can upgrade without changing plates.
How do you ditch the weights in an emergency?
The LX2 uses a pinch and pull buckle. You pinch the buckle to unlock it, then pull the large nylon handle on the pouch to release the pocket. The same large nylon handle is also used to carry the weights, per Hollis.
Is the LX2 a replacement for the older Hollis LX pocket?
Yes. The LX2 replaces the older LX pocket and updates it with a pinch and pull buckle, a large nylon ditch and carry handle, and zippered, partitioned pouches. Hollis built in reverse compatibility, so the LX2 mounts to older Hollis backplates and harnesses as well as current Hollis harness systems.
Review summary
This is the Hollis LX2 weight system, a quick-release ballast setup that fits Hollis Solo, Elite 2, and HTS2 harness systems. It holds 12 pounds total in a zippered pouch that is partitioned so a lighter load does not shift during the dive, and it uses a pinch and pull buckle with a large nylon handle to ditch or carry the weights. It threads onto standard harness webbing, has stainless steel D-rings, and is reverse compatible with older Hollis backplates and harnesses. Written reviews are still few. It suits divers already on a Hollis harness who need integrated ditchable weight.
