Looking for a new helmet. I like the looks of the Edelrid Ultralight. Not too sure of Petzl helmets such as the Elios and Altios. I would prefer a suspension helmet without foam. Most folks I cave with stocked up on Ecrin Rocs when the discontinuation was announced. I currently own a Vertex. Any recommendations out there?

All the ones you mentioned are good. Beware used Ecrins - you don't know how hard they were used or abused. Try a few lids on. Look at the ventilation systems (usually just sliders that open vents). And be sure it's a 4-point suspension...all of the ones you mention are.
