Has anybody used the MR-9 alkaline battery adapter that supposedly permits
you to use alkaline batteries in your OM bodies that otherwise require

Sorry, I should have read your question more carefully. I *do* use the
MR-9 adapter, but *only* with silver cells (MS-76, SR44W, etc.). Alkalines
aren't recommended, because they have a different internal resistance and
the wrong discharge curve (metering errors start to accumulate).
Silver cells only, that's the way to go with the MR-9.
