Is there an expiration date on these batteries? How can I tell if they are fresh or not.

No, not at all! These are extremely fresh from the factory! Will check expirations tomorrow and give you the exact date.

The batteries I received were in the original packaging. The expiration date on the batteries is March 2021.

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 got mine three months ago and mine expire in 04 of 2016. I like these batteries and they are the bet I have found.

There are no indications of an expiration date from the retail box. These are new and direct from the manufacturer.

Without getting into the technical aspects such as mAh charge capacity, discharge rate, number of cycles, etc. It really comes down to purchasing from a trusted vendor. I if the new battery doesn't hold a charge, it's most likely not a new battery. As for determining if the battery is "Fresh". These batteries are sometimes not charged until you first charge them.

Hi. I ordered them this early year and they had an 8 year expiration date from 2013. Now I can't tell you if other companies who sell this same brand have the same. When you see the one you want, email them what expiration date you will recieve. They looked fresh and I only opened one and looked at it but of course did not use it. So they looked smelled fresh. Hope this helps

Yes, there is an expiration date on the package. The ones I have are fresh until 7/2014.

They are what they say, they last just as long as average battery but cheaper and with a long shelf life. Mine which I got last yr have a shelf life till 2015. I bought several.

I ordered these batteries and I assure you, they were "fresh". The expiration date is in 2015. They are new batteries and they work great! I hope this helps....I was wondering the same thing, since they are less than half of what i can find them for locally :)

There is no way that we can know the expiration date as it is not stamped on the package. However, the Sony batteries that I ordered are performing well and I am satisfied.

Shelf life should be very similar to the Energizer battery of the same type. Their web site states, " Note: Manufacturer does not stamp this battery or packaging with expiration date. We guarantee battery freshness for minimum shelf life shown above." which is 4 years from purchase date. My guess is that 5 yrs is a safe bet in my opinion.

You would be better asking the seller. I bought these awhile ago, and mine weren't expired. Sorry

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.

Sorry, every battery will have a different experation date. It is based on the date of manufacture. The ones I bought are good until April of 2018 so they have ample time.
