Why the hell are half of the AA & AAA batteries in my long term stash completely dead? They claim to be good for another 6 years. Both Energizer & Duracell.

Cause fiat
Similar for me. They r shitcoins
Never had problems with Kirkland batteries. Been using them for probably 20 years.
They used to last 🤷‍♂️ another day light robbery
Fraudulent batteries? Or was the storage container conducting somehow?
Yeah , given that AAA is the best rating there is to buy, they should've stayed in business longer. Can't trust these ratings. I smell corruption.
Use disposable lithiums instead; the chemistry is much more durable and they last longer and function in a larger range of temperatures.
fiat promises
don't listen to moody's their battery rating is trash.
All fiat creates is marketing scams
use eneloop
Rechargeable? If so what percentage did you keep them charged at?
If not, any particularly extreme temperature or humidity?
Otherwise: wait, corporations lie???
Should you ever develop a battery obsession, please also investigate: nostr:note18n0k25wa9ahjnn85fks0wzmm49kjtfz0c22afhdwalhd3uenewaspxgalx
Temp fluctuations?
Loosely stored batteries? Terminals that can contact metal and help discharge.
Gotta look into if we can action anything against the estimated life being falsely advertised
The price of AAs has also skyrocketed, relative, to most other items. 🤔
Fiat batteries…
Thank you for the reminder to check my own battery stash.
