I will not get involved about criticizing those two web links about , how correct they did the tests ..
Specially the second , speaks about termination voltage as 0.1 Volt .. thats an even ridicules as idea ..
Any 9V battery if it drops one Volt , starts to be rejected from devices like the DMM's !!
So, we do not care about anything else other than useful " mAh " as amount ,
stored in one 9V Block ..
Even me, I am not aware the true " mAh " of the Varta Alkaline's (high energy),
that I got as balk of 20 pieces.
Thats why I started this thread , so to compare the batteries , by our experiences .
The first link , has an interesting measurement alkaline VS Lithium , pointing out that at the same battery dimensions ( AA ) the lithium one managed to have stored the triple amount of " Ah " .

I am thinking , if it worths to get 9V NiMH , and just recharge .
I am aware that the 9V NiMH have less power in comparison with the Alkaline's .
But I am not going to make my mind today about it ..
I have lot of New Alkaline's next to me ... and this buying me time, so to get in the future an better 9V NiMH if they make any, or find out the truth about the Lithium ones , that as far as I am aware of , they fall at the 75% of their capacity in just two years from the production , as they have very active chemistry.
And die at the third to fourth year , again from their active chemistry.
