I purchased a set of 10 in a pack over a year ago and they still are fresh I use them in my RC transmitter of my model airplanes

I bought some from of these, and other sizes of Duracell, from Amazon, but was not happy with the life of them, they didn't act very fresh. The package should have a date on them from the manufacturer, but you won't know what it is until they arrive at your house. You can put batteries you aren't using in the refridgerator/freezer to extend the life until you need them. I don't buy regular batteries from here anymore.

I ordered mine... Oh, a while back... maybe 18 months ago. They're still fresh. If you get batteries that are near their expiration dates, I imagine Amazon would let you return them to keep a happy customer.

Due to Customer Service error I received WAY too many, and I can tell you the ones I received at various times are good until 2022 and after.

The batteries I received had an expiration date of January 2014. I bought them in September 2014. I will never buy batteries from this seller, or on Amazon at all, ever again.

I'm not sure if they were dated. I did not notice. I buy them for my radio at work and I've never had a problem with them. Duracell is a very good brand of battery regardless if it had a date or not.

I believe these units were first offered about four years ago. The units currently offered could be of recent manufacture, and the batteries might possibly be fresh. My units are about four years old, and all the batteries seem to work just fine. You would want to contact the merchant directly to answer this question, as there is no way for this user to know for sure about how long these units have been awaiting a sale.

Hello Amy. I don't know what the date is...I need to look at the battery. That information was on the description of the battery as being up to date, therefore, I assumed the battery would be fine. But that was not the case. I still have the battery.

That date is SureFire's date of guaranteed useful life of the battery. Hope this helps.

I don't see a date on them, but I have ordered these batteries 3 or 4 times for at least 10 years. They last as long if not longer than the ones provided by the home security firm. I can't give you a time space, but they work quite well for me.

The outside box has no date on it. Each individual battery is marked with a "Best Before" date of March 2018. I purchased them January 16 2014, so it is a safe bet that current batteries will have a different date. For what it's worth; These batteries have exceeded my expectations. I have a number of wireless motion sensors that are in relatively high-traffic areas during the day. Previous batteries of another brand, always alkaline, never lasted more than about 5 months in those devices. These batteries, put into use January of 2014, are still going strong as of October 16 2014. The outside box has no date on it.

Batteries (two of them) not dead yet. Not as good as new, though - not after 8 years of use.

I purchased one of these batteries September of last year and when you get them, they have a little sticker on them that tells you the make/refurbish date. Mine was made 08/13 so they are pretty new. The first available date was when this ad was first posted. These batteries don't exactly expire, and as long as the page says "In Stock" it is available. When companies make the ad they have to list a Quantity, so if they have 10 and sell 7 it will tell you. If they have over 100 or so it will not list the quantity, and they can add more to the stock as they get them. I can tell you I've not had a single issue with this item as of today, however optima does not cover the warranty. If you have any issues, you will have to go through amazon for replacements.

Yes, the batteries are fresh. They are working fine. I don't see an expiration date on the package or on the batteries themselves. Regards, Bruce

my guess is that they are new however they are knockoffs, you can see that the text on the battery looks almost exactly the same as the regular battery which i noted, however the water damage spot has little blue x's on it and the text was noticeably bolder then the originally battery.

Genuine Sony batteries will have the "Use by date" stamped on the back of the package.However, this date varies widely from 2017 to 2025 depending on sellers.Read the "Condition" description carefully before making your purchase.

The date on the front side of the Battery is the Best used by date. The number on the bottom of my batteries looks more like a manufacturing control number than a date.

I bought two of these batteries last year for my camper and I checked the dates on them after seeing your question. they are brand new.

Yes, there is a date on the batteries. Sometimes you can find them cheaper than others on a website, and perhaps this is because the expiration date is more limited in time.

That is the expiration date. These batteries have a 10 year listed shelf life. If you just received some with a June 2012 date, I would recommend returning for a refund. The ones I got expire in 2022.

I think it depends on who the distributer is at time of purchase; they seem to change over time. The last batch of these batteries I received did not have expiration dates printed on either the battery or its packaging. I don't recall ever seeing dates physically printed on the batteries, although I have seen them printed on the packaging. But you'll have to trust the date on the packaging is correct, especially if the packaging looks like "re-packaging". The best way to tell if the battery you are about to use is fully charged (or check the batteries when you receive them, like I do) is to use a simple, inexpensive voltmeter that has either an analog or digital scale that measures at least 3.6 volts.

Whether the battery is new there is no way to tell. The battery looked new and there wasn't any noticeable marks of previous use. However, the first battery I purchased only lasted 5 months and quit accepting a charge. I bought another battery from the same company through Amazon, and so I'll see if it lasts longer. So far it is working okay and is accepting a charge. The battery was packaged like it was new.
