"Petzl created the Verso Belay Device for lovers of the Reverso who want to lighten their rack. Not only is the Verso 31% lighter than the Reverso, it's more compact. Whether you're climbing with a single, half, or twin rope, Petzl's Adaptive Rope Control technology adapts by increasing or decreasing the braking friction to suit the diameter and conditions. When you're climbing partner is working the crux, the Verso's asymmetrical grooved sidewalls decrease friction for ease when taking up slack. Use this belay device with asymmetrical biners for max efficiency."

From Oregon Mountain Community:
"The Petzl Verso is a simplified, more compact, and lighter weight version of the Petzl Reverso. It is a single belay device that works with ropes down to 7.5 mm. The Petzl Reverso has ARC (Adaptive Rope Control) technology that dynamically changes the friction on the rope through a groove system in one end. This belay device will cover all your basics and still cut grams off your rack.
