I have a bunch of odds-n-ends, low-tech, flashlights that are primarily used for emergencies. In other words, they sit and collect dust 99.999% of the time. I got on a kick to replace the batteries in all of them and pickup a few spare bulbs...just in case. I noticed that I have a couple with batteries with 2011 dates on them and older. They work but aren't super bright. How does one tell when a battery is kaput for practical purposes (in a flashlight)?
There's got to be a way to measure this and, if so, a number to say replace them. I'm not cheap, I just don't like waste and throwing out batteries with life left in them is, to me, waste.
