I use them to practice with but have never bought expired ones. They will be dead, I assume, although you can get them to work for 2 hours or so if you put them into a microwave fo 15 secondspeace outgarbo tongue------------------

Well I've used them before and the ones I had were about a year after their expry date and I had about an 80% success rate. The ones that did light stayed lit a shorter time than they should have. I was using 6 hour sticks and they went for about 4 hours. But that was still plenty of time.
