Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"DMM made the V-Twin Belay Device out of stainless steel instead of aluminum to increase durability and keep it cooler on long rappels. The deep V-shaped grooves provide solid breaking performance on ropes ranging from 8 to 10.5mm, so you can take it along whether you're using your fatty on a sport route or bringing twins on an ice line. You may expect the V-Twin Belay Device to be heavy, but thanks to DMM's investment casting manufacturing process and close tolerances, it weights a mere 3.1oz."

From GearX.com:
"The V Twin is our new, premium belay device."

From US Outdoor Store:
"Description of DMM V Twin Belay DeviceThe V Twin is a variable friction belay device. It is made from stainless steel for durability and better heat dissipation. It stays a lot cooler on long abs when compared to it's aluminium counterparts. DMM spent a long time playing around with the directional teeth in the body so that they allow you to easily control the friction without the side effects of the ropes sticking when you want to pay out quickly. This unit works well on all ropes from skinny 8.0s to fat 10.5s - as usual all the DMM office personnel were roped in to test this comprehensively at the local wall, however the prize goes to Mr. Desroy for taking repeated falls onto a (backed-up) new 8.0mm rope.... It uses the same nylon covered retaining wire as that used on the Bug because this has a proven history of good durabilityFeatures:Weight: 88gDesigned for 8.0 to 10.5mm ropes.Manufactured from stainless steel using lost wax investment casting"
