I have one 2006 battery, one 2007 and one 2008 and I can put any two of them on an I2 and go more than 15 miles. I have read about people who have gone 10 years and 10,000 miles on one set of batteries - Don't know for a fact that this is possible, but I know my three 'old' batteries are still in remarkably good shape for their age
