I did stock up on PX625s after learning that production in the EU became illegal last year. There are still distributor and dealer stocks, so the batteries are still to be found here in Belgium. My question is, how long can they be stored? There is no "use by" date on them, like on the alkalines.

The best alternative is Zn-air. - -- Nathan Wajsman Overijse, Belgium General photo site: http://belgiangator.tripod.com/ Belgium photo site: http://members.xoom.com/wajsman/ Motorcycle site: http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Downs/1704/
