From Backcountry.com:
"The Petzl Laser Sonic Ice Screw is the latest innovation in ice climbing anchors, and perhaps an attempt to push the envelope beyond the current leader, the Turbo Express. The Laser Sonic is designed with a rotating hanger and crank-in-one for ultra-efficient placement and removal. For the leader, placement is possible with one hand. The aggressive teeth bite into the ice for optimal penetration in as little as one and one half turns. The increased angle of the hanger away from the head of the screw means less effort scraping away ice and a quicker overall placement time. During cleaning you can leave the screw clipped to the rope, reducing the risk of dropping the screw."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"No more fumbling to sink a screw as you're gripped on a detached pillar, the Laser Sonic Ice Screw makes snow cones out of the hardest of ice. Petzl now has an answer to the BD Express Screw, with a rotating hangar/handle which requires no handle manipulation, just grab it off your rack and fire away. When the second cleans the pitch no more worries about dropped ice screws, the swivel hanger allows for the screw to remain clipped to the rope when removing from ice."

From REI:
"Build for speed, these ice screws have an easy-to-grip hanger that makes it simple to insert with one hand. Never drop another screw! Free-floating hanger allows you to remain clipped to pro during insertion or extraction. Floating hanger reduces the chance that the rope will dislodge anchor placement and also reduces rope drag. Aggressive teeth bite into the ice with 1.5 rotations; polished surface enables easy, smooth placement. Protective sleeve protects you and your gear."
