In this thread, tplyons recommends Duracell Procell as long-lasting reliable source of 9V for active basses (I think pedals will accept them too
). Never saw them in stores, but I’ll give them a try next time (recently I got 4pk of Energizers). You can got them, for example, on eBay.

I’ve heard this hundreds of times - good “pocket player” or “oh, yeah, this was in the pocket”. This discussion may explain what is this.

Innovative bass pedals! One of a kind! A must have for every bassist.
Jaco-B-Gone, Bass-B-Havior and Fret-B-Gone from RedTelectronix.
A pedal of the greatest magnitude!! I’ve seen all the grousing on the various discussion boards about “busy” bass players in blues bands and the grief they can cause. Give ‘em a break guys and girls, it’s not their fault! It’s the dreaded Jaco Syndrome (no disrespect intended!). Simply insert the Jaco-B-Gone in your bass players signal chain and he or she will never know what hit them! No matter how hard they try, all that comes out is a deep, grooving, solid bass line.
