I have to old one.
Wish it had gear loops.
Great for an extra harness if someone forgets theirs.
Great price.

It's a nice headlamp, but it's quick to short out w/ any bumps to it. Good for a backup light or for the campsite, but I wouldn't rely on it alone in a cave.

Probably the best belay device there is.
Double rope rapels are so smooth, w/ no twisting the rope.
Smooth belay. The only quam I have is the Aluminum oxidation you get from it on the rope. But you can't have everything.
Everyone should have at least 2 ATC's. I know I do.

Great biner.
Only quams I have are that it doesn't fit throught a GriGri w/ the curve in the spine and it's a bit expensive.
Other than that, it's great.
Easy to clip your harness, great belay/rapel biner w/ an ATC. The offset gate makes for easy clipping and unclipping. I give it 5.
I can always get a different biner for my GriGri.
