These products are great for small taper-less cracks where nuts won't work too well.
Important to note that they can really tear up soft sandstone and that, when used as an aid placement, can rotate around weirdly.
They are light, have an OK range, and work where little else will. Sure you could use a tiny cam, but if there are irregularities where a tiny cam might not seat perfectly (see all "alien popping" stories...positioning of small cams is key) this may be a good option.
Also, these work in shallower placements than small cams, as they are less than an inch deep.
Specialized gear, for sure.
