thanks 4 the thread..
good info
They are about the same price as some of the climbing rated carabiners from REI - I just purchased a couple - probably a safer bet. Plus, more colors (I was a able to get a pair of green ones to match my hammock).

Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy,
while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn." — John Muir
Thanks for the REI Links guys, I too am thinking of switching out my original ENO biners with lighter weight/better for fabric ones.
Biners were the first thing to go when I purchased mine. Doesn't make sense to use something you can trust 100%
I just picked up my ENO DN in late Febuary (amazon.com) and received the old steel carabiners. Those things are really heavy.
Going to toss them out and replace the rigging. 2 rounds of 24hour driving gave me plenty of time to design a quick setup rigging which will make setup and tear down so much easier.
