Not only are these nice biners, but they aren't going to break the bank. Snappy and tight fitting keylock gates on these means less fumbling with your gear while on your way up or down the route.

I've been enjoying these as my bolt-end biners and haven't noticed anything negative about them. They feel pretty darn good in your hand, but I'm more of a fan of the nitron's for my straight gates due to the gate being shaped differently with a bit more grip on the biner with overall less weight. For the price, these keylocks are really hard to beat.

The most comparable biner in size/shape that I own are the Mad-Rock ultra-tech biners, but the nose on these is MUCH nicer for cleaning. The positron has less of a 90 degree angle behind the keylock nose to eliminate snagging for a smoother clip or unclip.

Since I got these, every time I reach for a biner I'm looking for a Positron. I don't think I can own enough of them. I don't understand why the companies still make the old style gates. The keylock makes it snag free so they are perfect for all types of climbing. They don't get hung up on webbing or bolts so cleaning is a lot easier while you are still pumped. They are light (however not the lightest) for the people trying to maximize every ounce.
I highly recommend these to people that are trying to figure out what to buy. You will not be disappointed with these. I am ordering more, and I am also going to order a couple of the Positron locking biners too.

This is my favorite carabiner. Very easy one hand use, and never snags on the rope or runner. I wish I bought more then I did. Cant go wrong...

I'll gladly jump on the 5 star bandwagon for these. Very easy to clip and unclip and smooth to use. For a keylock biner too this is also the cheapest I've found with no disadvantages (so hey, why not save the money, two of these is only slightly more expensive than one Petzl Spirit, which is still a great biner, just much pricier without much additional gain in my opinion). I will be adding more of these to my rack.

i use the straight gate design for the bolt side biner of my quickdraws... best keylock biner in my opinion. smooth clipping and easy cleaning.

They had these on SAC for $4 a pop so I bought 4 of them. Good action, non-snag keylock design, large gate clearance. However, I am a fanatic when it comes to cutting weight, especially when leading, and these guys are HEAVY. It comes in a 39 g, compared to my Camp Nanos (23 g), and Metolius FS minis (25 g). I use these are general purpose biners, or just to store things.

Bottom line: Solid, well designed carabiner, but much too heavy for my taste.

I recently upgraded all my runners with the Positron and I'm completely sold on them. Aside from lightening up my trad rack they are very easy to engage, easy motion for clipping gear and like the Petzl Spirit which pioneered the lack of the "C" on the open end the Positron wont catch on your runner when you're unclipping it to lengthen and then need to clip back in to the rope. Super smooth.

Been using these with runners to make extendable draws (or alpine draws) for routes in the obed and foster falls. they work great. easy to clip, good clearance for rope to fall in and can take a beating!

High Quality. Light- Smooth - Stron - Keyless

Makes a great bolt side for QD's - Definitely lighter more expensive products out there but these are sweet.

I use these on top and Omega 5-0 Wiregates on the bottom...they are super huge and easy to clip... Love em!

If you're looking for a do-it-all biner, I recommend the Positron. Of course the keylock gate is crucial. While it's not the least expensive biner out there, it's worth the price for sure. Stock up on these.

The Positron isn't the lightest beiner you can buy, but it has my favourite when it comes to handling with gloves on and easy grabbing when you're climbing on your limit. Big plus is indeed the smooth keylock. I would also recommend the Screwlock version of this beiner as an overall light screwgate beiner.

I used this biner at my local climbing gym and I like it. With the bent gate I found it much more easy to clip in and out of the rope. Gate action is smooth also.

I use these little things as additional tool hooks, and for that purpose they work nicely. I generally carry two: one for my knife and one empty in case I'll have to hang something into it fast. They also act as a nice little backup for climbing, especially in icy/snowy conditions. When the primary carabiners have their rollable locks frozen useless I'll take one of these off my belt and switch to using it.

I own a lot of these because they are so cheap and work great! I use these for pretty much everything! I like the size and I think the weight is fine and I love the lime color. I will continue to use and buy these biners!

I love the key lock feature it makes clipping and unclipping easier as they don't snag as much. I have these on my draws as the carabineers that clips to bolts and protection.

A classic. Theres no C to get you runner or the bolt caught on. There is nothing worse than being on lead 10 feet above your last piece trying to get you next piece in and your runner is all caught in the gate. This carabeiner solves that problem.

Well, haven't really had a chance to use it for climbing, but it makes a great hook on my Kelty Convertible Backpack! It can hold all sorts of things very conveniently!

I've been super pleased with all the BD climbing gear I've purchased so far. This is only my second summer of climbing but I feel confident having a quality extra Biner for my future lead climb that doesn't pan out.
