How to figure out the expiration date for Philips FR3 AED battery?

Great question and very important. Philips FR3 battery 989803150161 has a 3 year stand-by life (life while installed in the AED and in stand-by mode). The FR3 battery has an "install by date" printed on it. The install date is generally 5 years out from the date of purchase. This means you have a 4 year shelf life (new and uninstalled). So your Philips FR3 battery expected expiration date is 3 years from the date you install your battery as long as you install the battery within the "install by date".
