Scam or great?
Are the battery protectors worth it?
Thank you.

I purchased the MRX spare battery and charger from Amazon last month (Oct). I have my Garmin edge 830 linked with my axs and it also indicates the MRX battery level as well. I just recently charged it after about a months worth of MTB riding and seems to hold it's charge for now. I also left it on while rinsing/cleaning my drivetrain. Had it for a month so I can't comment on the durability but it's been great so far.

I ordered the charger and 2 batterie.

So I got the two batteries and the charger from MRX. I plugged in one max battery into the SRAM charger and one MRX battery into the MRX Brand charger they both charge at the seemingly same amount of time. So far so good

Any follow up information about the MRX batteries and chargers?

just wanted to see if they are built to last.

I actually just went back to using the SRAM AXS battery. The MRX batteries were great initially but after about 7-8 months both of my batteries eventually had issues connecting/pairing with my AXS derailleur and dropper post. While riding, it just stopped shifting even though it was charged and fully locked/snapped in. Luckily, I had my OEM battery as a spare.

That’s good to know. I guess I’ll just buy the Sram battery for a backup.
