Has anyone tried the D'Addario EXP Coated strings?

Right now I just use D'addarios EXL 160 strings and I was wondering if the EXP Coated strings are worth the extra cost. They are close to double the cost of the EXL strings, but if their tone is better and lasts longer, I think it would be worth it the extra cost.

Yeah, i tried them. They are a bad knockoff of Elixirs. If i were you, ide shimmy up the few extra and get elixirs.
