[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazingly light but also large enough for non-baby fingers(lookin at you metolius). Great for racking cams and gate doesn’t snag too bad compared to other wiregates

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are very good for what they are designed to be: a lightweight, small, low-cost carabiner. If every gram counts they are pretty good. For example, on the bolt side of an alpine draw, they have a thin nose and are good for clipping bolts/pitons. However, I find them too small to enjoy clipping on the rope side of a alpine draw and I don't like the snag gate for racking cams. In general

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Am blown away with how air light this Biner is. It’s got good spring action in the gate and with decent gate opening. I also like how the biner has a deep “pocket” for holding sling or rope.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I know it is, you know it is. You don't buy anything else because this is great and comparably priced to less great things. Put your gear on this carabiner.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Light, snappy, strong... what else can you ask for. I rack all my cams on nano 22s. IMO they're not significantly better than any of the small carabiners offered by other companies (Metolius FS Mini II, BD Hotwire), so get whatever's cheapest.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hard to beat when you want to keep it light and colorful. The mini carabiners all have the slight drawback of clipping difficulty, but it’s a fair sacrifice for the weight. The color selection is awesome and the gate action is excellent. Based on the older ones on my rack they’re relatively durable too. Excellent choice when weight is paramount. If clipping is paramount then the photon wire is boss.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use these for racking cams, helps keep weight to a minimum. You won’t find a lighter fully functional caribiner. Lots of colors to match up with whatever you’ve got

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m not using this biner for climbing, but for a pulley system to be able to easily hang all kinds of gear for protection against animals and ground moisture. The CAMP Nano 22 is small and lightweight with a rated high-strength capacity for any of my needs. Thank you.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted a bunch of affordable carabiners for the family to have on their climbing harnesses to clip gear to or be able to use to bear weight if needed. These have me highly impressed. They are so super light you barely know they’re there. They’re really smooth too, the gates have consist and perfect tension to them. Great job CAMP.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice and light. Great for a chalk bag or a key chain or dog leash. Or climbing of course, but if you have big hands it can be hard to operate

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My biner of choice for alpine draws. Big enough to hold a clove in a 9.8. Throw these on both ends of a long dyneema dogbone and you have multipitch draws that are practically weightless.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've tried many varieties of lightweight carabiners and so far this is the best out there in terms of the weight and functionality. Camp Nano 22's gate action is very smooth, quite the improvement from their older predecessors the original Nano and Nano 23s (Gen 1 an 2). I've tried smaller carabiners like Metolius FS Mini and Mini II, and smaller and lighter Edelrid's G19, but they are too small and harder to use. Even for my small hands Nano 22 is probably the smallest I would go without compromising the performance. I've replaced all my racking carabiners and alpine quick draws with these. They are phenomenal weight saving. Its rope bearing surface has adequate amount of meat but I would not use them as the everyday workhorse like working on a sport route.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super light, kinda freaky at first, but they work really well. A little small of an opening to get them on and off, but not as bad as other competitor's for a biner this size. Good stuff.
DaveRips
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I find these perfect size for racking cams, not too bulky and just large enough to feel comfortable in the hand. No complaints, except the Black is more like dark gray, so they are hard to decipher from the silver in the right light.
Cadams
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve switched all of my old BD neutrino wiregate carabiners for thew Camp Nano 22. For my standard rack this saved me almost a pound of weight off of my harness. The Nano 22 works well and I’m very happy with the switch.
