I bought the performa some years before. The list of the specification that the seller sent me writes 'new pram battery installed on 2009". Can this battery last so little?

Define "new". I needed a camcorder battery and looked for a new one. The "new" ones I found were produced in 2009! While 4 years old may not be too bad for an unused battery, its not new enough for me. So while the previous owner may have installed a new battery, it may have been already been an older one. They are dated. A quick look would not hurt.
