I recognize that labelling, those are AU/NZ market batteries, you see you gotta read the label backwards.

They were good until February '82, the year of the uh...ram.

I'll be you also tolerate cameras that scratch film, am I right?

and my rant continues....

I have these hygrometers which I keep in my dry boxes along with dessicants to make sure my gear is stored in a low humidity environment.
This exact one:

They run on AA batteries - one to be precise. Obviously you don't take the battery out like you would with photographic gear etc as it needs to constantly monitor the conditions.

How far away from expiration was it?
I don't use loose alkaline cells in valuable equipment anymore as they all tend to leak.
