Let's see

Reverso: $26.95 weight 81g
Black Diamond ATC Guide: $25.95 weight 102g
Trango B-52: $24.95 60g
Mini Traxion : $69 weight 165 g, workin load as a pulley 2kn(~450 pounds), breaking strength as a pulley 6.6kn(~1485 pounds)

If you use the Mini Traxion to belay a second you will load it over the roller the same way you would as if you were using it as a pulley. Pretty low breaking strength.

Also it weighs more costs more and has teeth.
