Metolius Powercams
lrpruit100133306: 
Great lightweight cams! Placed all four (#5-8) on first multipitch climb with em. Haven't taken a fall on any of them yet but they place fairly easily and seem pretty hardy. The bigger of the cams tend to walk a little bit if not set well, due to the inner lobes being relatively close together. This allows for placements in smaller cracks and pockets for smaller pieces but it seems that camalots are better for bigger cam placements. Hope it helps
Finger-lickin' good
live4it:
Grab this pack o'cams and go send that finger-crack you've been eyeing. Easily placed, solid feel, confidence inspiring. 'Nuff said.
wicked light!
SLClimber: 
These cams rock! I got a set of these and the TCU's and they feel like they don't weigh a thing at all. I also like the range finder dots that let you see if the placement is good or not.
Light
AltaYayo:
Metolius doesnt lie about them being light. I got a package of TCU's and immediately went to city of rocks to use them. Of course, that place loves trad gear, but I was placing them everywhere I could and every placement seemed bomber on the fist set. Needless to say, I fell in love with these cams. Very Happy!!
Lots of whippers on the best cams ever!
Desert Backpacker:
I was just in Moab, UT climbing on splitter sandstone and I was climbing super hard, pulling some of the hardest cracks I have ever done. On the hardest climb of the week I took several falls on these cams, everything from a rest to a 20+ foot whipper on these cams. Not only did they not pull-out or shift/slide, they held true and sure! You sacrifice a bit of range-per-cam with the single axle, but these cams make up for that in holding power and reliability
