At four years I'd expect a battery is at barely half life. I know 15 and 20 year life spans are above average but I've seen it, in fact still using one on the 730 Case.

I don't know if the cold dry conditions are what help batteries last longer here but if I don't get ten years out of a battery I feel like it was a poor battery.
