90% certain those 0839 are from 39th week of 2008. Time to reform them!

Thanks, Anders. Actually, I think it's time not to buy them.😉

Charge them up really slowly, and they're as good as new. I would have NO worries.

I second that. Here is what the manufacturer has to say about it. Read Shelf Life on page 16.

Better yet, read the whole document.
