Evilpotatoe:
Raising protection to something non OP (35% ?) might be a good idea, but atm, the 2 major reasons why I almost never use envirosuits outside of the lava pits are :
 -You don't need them to cross a few tiles of lava, and they are nearly useless for a fight. Most probable real use is such buggy level cases.
 -They are rare ! Which means I won't waste one to cross a river of acid unless I got one to waste. Now that a suit is given at dlvl 7, I tend to keep it until the lava pits. In several games, I didn't found any... make it more common !

Klear:
I use them regularly, and usually use up all suits I find in a given game. I suppose there are different playstyles. They seem fine the way they are to me.

White Rider:
Phobos Lab has two guaranteed suits and Military Base also has a guaranteed suit. You get one or the other, so you can definitely leave Phobos with at least one suit, and maybe more from a vault or perhaps even natural spawn.

As for using them, I usually save them for other special levels. I usually use one for Hell's Armory, but for the similar Deimos Lab, I find running through that vat of acid to be a better decision than using an envirosuit. And I'm probably part of a small population who prefers using a phase device for Lava Pits/Erebus...

Evilpotatoe:
Phase device is probably very efficient for Mt. Erebus, but is really random for the lava pits. It's all about reliability (which I value a lot).
I stopped taking the supercharge from HA. I always try getting shambler's head now anyway, so I'm not supposed to need an excess of HP. For the lab, atm, I just blow up the walls. Collateral destruction of soulspheres is likely to happen, btw :p ... or I just go through 3 tiles of acid, if I really need one.

@Klear
I often use the ones I find in levels, like powerups, but just rarely carry them.
Also, I think it screws intuition, like berserk, which is a shame.
They are not bad, but they are just not worth taking one slot either... (except for lava pits, or probably for AoHu-like challenges)

Matstaal:
big discussion that spawned from my post

to clarify: I was playing Angel of Light Travel. With normal playthroughs, I usually carry around one Enviro Suit, especially when I don't have a (homing) Phase Device. Ofcourse, on AoLT it's very difficult to devote a slot. The speed bonus increase might make up for it, though. Next time I'll try running.

Thanks
