BioRad TBE Extended range premixed buffer?

Hi,

I ran across a 10x TBE Extended Range pre-mixed buffer in the BioRad
catalog. They claim this buffer "extends buffer capacity for longer DNA
sequencing runs." Has anyone ever tried this buffer and does it make for
better sequencing reads on the long electrophoresis times that the
373Strech requires? I have checked with Perkin-Elmer and they know of
no one using this buffer.

Thanks,
