Need advice asap!

I found some Panasonic batteries at a great price but the expiration date is Feb 2016. Since they lose power over time would these be worth buying now?

I have about 10 Panasonics from around the same age (bought in 2005, no exp date), maybe older. I used a couple in the last couple of weeks and they still work great. The ones I have are made in Japan, not US.

They should be fine but look for a deal on them or just buy fresh batteries.

Thanks, Bobby! These are made in the US I believe. The black ones. They're $1.25 each for 24 and $1.11 if I but the 36 pack.

Just bought 36 of the Panasonic 1550mAh for $1 each with expiration dates 2018 and 2020. That's the best deal I've seen but there may be better.
