Advantages: light, durable, simple design Disadvantages: small bearings, no movable side plate
...This popular mid-sized auto-lock pulley has become quite popular umong wall climbers, soloists and rescue teams for good reasons, however be aware that its use is often limited.
There are two sides to the simplicity that this device offers.
Its basic construction (no moving side plate, small wheel etc) makes it perfect for recreational use- going soloing at the local crag, putting up a slackline or stocking a rescue kit.
However it goes without saying that when most of us are looking for a device of this kind- weight just isnt such an issue. If its a question of soloing there are much lighter (and safer) devices on the market. While if we are really going to haul any real loads (bodyweight in rescues or an average sized pig on a wall) the mini-traction is both too lightweight and slimmed-down technically.

Advantages: Secure and Comfy Disadvantages: Bulky and Expensive
...These slazenger batting gloves have all the technology here to keep those precious fingers protected. They have the new Hex Tech Impact protection panels (although I think these might be more of a marketing aspect than actually do anything, but they look good though!). Fibre inserts into the padding, as well as Slazenger's Air Flow system which helps to maintain that all important secure grip. A very comfy glove with sheep skin palms, as well as a two piece thumb for increased flexibility. Overall a very secure and comfortable glove, but it comes at a price selling at around £50 in the shops. Worth buying if your a serious cricketer, but to bulky and expensive for your local village team....
