In practice that means your legs are less likely to sink as you inflate, and holding a horizontal position takes less correcting. A flatter body position also cuts drag, which you feel on a long finning session.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFine adjustments without a weight belt\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour small pockets in the shell let you shift a kilo here or there to balance yourself, rather than rethreading lead on a belt. That suits divers who change cylinder or exposure suit often and want to tweak trim between dives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCleaner hoses, more room for your head\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo hose openings give you somewhere sensible to run your inflator and accessories. The low-profile elbow sits against the cylinder, which leaves more space around your head and puts less strain on the corrugated hose fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\u003csection id=\"features\" class=\"product-section\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFeatures that matter underwater\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eReshaped bladder and shell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Era's air-moving geometry is the headline change. It adds lift low in the wing and makes it easier to find and keep a horizontal position. If trim has been your struggle in a jacket-style BCD, this is where a backplate and wing starts to pay off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOpti-Weight pockets\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe four zippered pockets each hold 1 kg (2.2 lb). Halcyon is clear that the bulk of your weight belongs on the tank or torso, and we agree. Use these for small corrections to trim and balance, not as your main ballast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDual hose openings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHalcyon says these were proven on the Legend double-tank system before they came to the Era. They let you place hoses and accessories where they suit your configuration, so everything stays tidy and reachable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCompact low-profile elbow\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe elbow fits tightly against the tank. You get more head room and less pressure on the hose fitting, which is a small detail that matters on long dives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-notice-box\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Era is designed for single cylinders. It is not a doubles wing.

The Eclipse is the long, proven single tank wing and comes in a 20 lb size too. The Era is the newer design, with the trim pockets, dual hose openings and low-profile elbow. If you are buying new and don't need 20 lb, we lean towards the Era.
