What is the shelve life for this product?

As long as product is kept closed I have had this product for many years. Once opened the seal to the cap never really closes securely. Also, I have placed sterno cans in freezer bage to extent their shelf life.

It's based on 3/hrs of day of use, which is 1,095 hours/year, or about 22.83 years. As with any product, using it more or less frequently will extend/reduce the life.In my own case, I've used three of these for more than 3 hours a day for 2.5 years or so, and have not had any issues so far.Also, the lifetime quoted assumes you follow the directions (i.e., don't install this in a *fully* enclosed fixture as the heat buildup will rapidly degrade the LED).

My recent purchase has almost 2 years remaining, so the product probably has at least a 2-year shelf life, could be more.

Can't find it from the manual. Suppose the life span of the battery depends very much on usage of special features like the lamp and altimeter. Otherwise, I would expect two years the minimum acceptable life span.

Hi Julia, If you keep this product in it's container or any tightly sealed container it will last for years. Hope this helps you.

Nope...mine lasted about the same amount of time...ending up tossing it. Inferior product IMO.

Sorry, I have no idea. I donate it to my shelter and I don't think it ever gets even close to its shelf life!

I am sorry I don't remember, and the package has been returned. I do remember that there was plenty of shelve life let before the expiration date was due.

Had it for months now and I think it is supposed to last for years. First time it was changed since bought. That's probably 10 years.

It would depend on the age of the product. Usually, the date is a best used by date and that is one year or more. This type of producthas a very good shelve life.

Mine lasted about 3 months. I uses it 2-3 times per week. It really goes a long way.

It doesn't have a short shelf life, but I can't remember how long it is off the top of my head. Go to the manufacture's site and contact them.

It depends on use. In substantial use, a few days.No use, or little use: few weeks.It last far more than its competition

I've had mine on for about 4 years and starting to deteriorate rapidly from the sun. Will need to replace this year...so would say 5 year practical lifespan.

there is a self life to the water and food stuffs of fire years from packaging. there are some things that can be added by yoourself that have longer shelf lives like mre's that can last on the shelf for as much as ten years.i got this so i would have something in the truck if i ever got stuck on hiway during a winter storm when you might be there for a day or so. that down't happen too often but better to be ready for it.

The manufacturer states the product is warrantied for 2 to 5 years depending on model. This is a residential product and if you use commercially the life will shorten Thanks

Shelf life is 4 yrs. Installed life is guaranteed for 2 yrs. Once opened, keep in a cool dry place with cap on and shake well before using again. I've used a bottle twice about 6 mos. apart and it still works great.
