When is the battery expiry date?

No idea, seems to be manufactured in June 2021 and they claim to have 10 year shelf life. Tested all batteries, all very similar reading at 1.61xx volt, which is good enough IMHO.

The ikea Stenkol charger is like a smart charger but at a fraction of the price. Game changer, really!
All the batteries in my house are rechargeable.
