Hmmmm... Mine has used 3 batteries in about 1 hour of playing over a 3 day period. Yes I shut it off after use & the batteries were new Duracells. After leaving it off over night I found the batteries were dead next time I turned it on. Sounds great with a fresh battery on board.

my surftrem seems to be doing okay in the battery department. mine has had the same battery in it for weeks...i've been playin' on it maybe 2-3 hours each week. do you unplug your surftrem from all the guitar cables when not in use? i do.

Tim,
Like Tom said always unplug all cables from a pedal when not using it.
and if your going to be playing in your garage most the time, it would be easy and wise to invest in a power cord adapter.
who did you buy the peadl from, if it was used, maybe thats why they were selling it, the battery consumption issue.

this is completly off topic, but a stabalized wallwart costs roughly the same as 2 batteries. I haven't bought a 9v battery in years, I still have the few I got with pedals I bought.

I started unplugging my surf trem & the battery has survived 3 days now. I highly recommend the surf trem. Someone buy it fast...
