Kit Config Advice

Do you mix dive Woz? solution looks fine to me, but just wondering where you put the suit inflation?

As for the original question of "whehere do you put the light when not in use", my answer would be "in the car", as the light goes on before I hit the water and usually stays on until I leave.

which works until you do your trimix course and need to find somewhere to fix your suit inflation bottle

I don't mix dive. But if I did, the other side of the backplate looks rather free. I'd look like I was wearing an Action Man Jet Pack.

Doesn't this get in the way? My backplate is fairly well flat against my back, so if I put anything there, it wouldpush the plate away from me.
I can see some kit fettling happening soon

With the wing deflated the canister sits on the side, out of the way behind the edge of the plate in the vee between the plate and the cylinder. You can't even tell it's there. Try it. It will cost you about 4p for the bungee.
