I love my 6-band, gonna upgrade it for the 10-band. The batteries last forever, I use it all the time and haven't changed the battery once.
Whereas the BOSS eats batteries like crazy! That, and Doc has said that he found the GE-7 to be very noisy..I beleive he said it, maybe someone else, but either way, apparently its noisy.
