Excellent money saver, but of questionable durability
I've been using these for almost eighteen months to power guitar pedals, tuner, metronome, headphone amp, etc. The device among these with the largest current consumption is an FEA compressor (30mA). In all cases the battery will keep the devices running without problem through performances, and rehearsals.
For those used to alkaline batteries, watch out for the discharge curve of NiMH cells; you will not get that slow discharge, and thus plenty of warning before needing to change batteries, that you get with alkaline batteries, and you need to get into the habit of changing, and recharging, batteries preemptively.
Other than that? No memory effect; high capacity cells; reasonably quick charging, etc.
What?s not to like? After 12+ months of use, one of my batteries has developed crystalline residue on one of the terminals. Thus the three stars on quality, and the comment about questionable durability. ymmv, but it's still hard to argue that it isn't excellent value for money.

Got 4 of them for 5 years now. Haven't used them so much but they are good. In a boss tu3 they don't last for long lately, but they are becoming old so I guess it's normal. When they were newer I used to use them as a power source for active pickups and they were long lasting

Good 9v Battery
Using with a Shure Glxde.
Very good quality vs price. However, I'm not sure if its charge as fast as my other battery.
