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.

wow, i just now looked at what i got and mine had 12/17/2010. You better ask the seller if you are indeed going to get that kind of battery because they don't usually give you what is posted on the site. better be sure before buying.

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.

The batteries I received were dated Mar 2018. Have had no problems with the batteries.

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.

It all depend on the freshness of the battery. 03-2020 is the expiration date. 1111A is the manufacture date code which stand for Made in November of 2011. The latest batteries are currently manufactured in 2014 and should have 12-2024 expiration date and xx14A (xx = month) date code. Newer battery has more capacity and longer shelf-life. Each seller may have different dated stock so be sure to check the description for the item condition. You may have to ask the seller directly if the info is not listed.

The batteries are the same Duracell AA Coppertop that I would buy in any store. Mine have a Mar. 2019 date on them. I assume that means that they are good until that year.

I think I bought these batteries in 2013. They show an expiration date of March 2019.

its similar to the date on milk, meaning they are best when used before that date. They will work after and depending on the environment which they were stored in also plays a roll on how well they will perform over time. I have used other batteries and have found that the surefire batteries exceed almost all other batteries for endurance. BTW, all batteries have dates. I hope this helped. One last thing, the light bulb over time can loose strength as well, so it would be prudent to check the condition and I try to make a habbit to replace the light bulbs when they prove to be taxed by use.

my batteries indicate 11/2018. I find them most unsatisfactory and will not buy them again.

Mine were Oct. 2017. You will use them up way before the experation. I have had good results with these batteries and will buy them next time.

A note on the package I received mentioned 2006. That was not a "good until" date, but I took it to be the date of manufacture. That being said, the batteries are working fine in my scientific calculator.

none of the batteries that i have had the words "best used by date" on their outer or inner packages. my batteries all have the 2018 date on each inner package. i suspect your not getting the right product. send it back.

They are dated with a time stamp saying how long they will retain the full charge they were shipped with. Upon inspection they needed charging when I received them....

It's actually a question of economics. I bought 24 dated MAR 2021 which leaves only 5 more years of guaranteed life. The box was shelf worn. I was a bit disappointed but I will keep them. They were approximately $2.00 cheaper than other vendors with the same batteries with 7 years of guaranteed life. It's your decision of which to purchase.

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.

The experation date is on the batteries. The one's i received from Amazon expired within a month. I did not have very good results with the Duracell batterys.
