(1 stars) - Maha batteries are TERRIBLE!!!
I bought 2 Maha 9 volt batteries because I bought an item that needs almost continuous 9 volt power. For this usage, the manufacturer said a 9 volt battery should last about 100 hours. The first battery I used was a non-rechargeable Energizer. That one actually lasted close to 200 hours. I was impressed, but in need of a more long-term solution than buying more and more Energizers. When my 2 Mahas arrived, I put one in and it lasted about 100 hours. No big deal, I thought. The instructions say that they usually become longer-lasting after a few charges (WRONG). When that one ran out, I put in the second one. It lasted about 8 hours. I was a bit pissed off, but I figured that I only needed that one to get by while the other one recharged. So I kept using them, and instead of lasting longer, they worked for shorter and shorter amounts of time. After FEWER THAN 10 CHARGES, they both last less than 6 hours. These batteries are functionally USELESS to me. I had read reviews about some of Maha's batteries being duds. When the one originally lasted 8 hours, I was convinced that one of mine was a dud. After recharging them both several times, I am convinced that both of them are duds. Maha is badly in need of quality control. I regret buying these batteries. Something this expensive should do what it says. Maha should go out of business. I can say unreservedly that I HATE THEM.

(5 stars) - The best for my paintball hoppers/markers
These batteries last and work great. I can't say enough about these batteries. The power output doesn't fluctuate and they don't slow down until they are completely drained. I also use the Maha charger with this battery.

(4 stars) - Powerful DV battery
I speak with the use of an electro larynx. When a battery goes dead, I'm left speechless. Because the Maha PowerEx is more powerful, I can set the volumn level down, which helps it hold a charge. And it holds its charge longer than the other brands and models I've tested. I'm sticking with this one.
I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars because the case has come off. I don't know if this is dangerous. I just slide it back on and go on with my business.
And another issue common to all the batteries I've tried: they will burn out and melt down in my pocket. Ouch! And I've not been able to find a convenient carrier made for these guys. My solution--I don't carry spares, so I appreciate the longer charge life of this model even more. I'm going to order more of these.

(5 stars) - Great rechargable
I bought four of these batteries for two roving mic's that get used 6 days a week 2-4 hours at a time. I wrote the date of purchase on them and 19 months after purchase, one has stopped holding a charge. I'm very happy with the life I got out of it and the others are still going strong. Definitely far cheaper than buying throw away 9v all the time. I'm very pleased.

(3 stars) - 9.6V not for all applications
I purchased two of these to use in my Shure wireless transmitter. Though both the transmitter and receiver show full battery strength, the transmitter doesn't function on the higher voltage. An 8.4V NiMH works fine.
