Looks promising. And the capacity of 500mAH is way more that the
typical 175mAH of NiMH 9 Volts (even though they aren't specified
exactly the same, so it is not an exact comparison). But note the
following cautions:

1) It looks like the self-discharge rate is high. If I understand
correctly their strange way of specifying it, it looks like the
capacity of a fully charged battery after 28 days sitting is about 30%
(1-1/2 hrs instead of 5 hrs life at 0.2C discharge rate).

2) Over discharge may decrease the cycle life and may cause battery
deformation, leak or open the cover.
