I have ripped several strings within too short a time. I met Elixir strings differently. Either this is a cheap copy or Elixir has subsided high, sorry, but those are not the strings as I got to know them. The sound is still good, but the Haltbakrkeit corresponding to each "normal" string, which you can get for a couple of euros somewhere. Nevertheless, 3 stars for a good sound.
