Tankstick manufacture date code format

Useful Answer

A Tankstick date code can be read as:

• First two digits: year.
• Next two digits: month.
• Next two digits: day.
• Final three digits: unit sequence number from that production day.

Example:

240904083

• 24 = 2024
• 09 = September
• 04 = day 4
• 083 = the 83rd unit from that day's production run

So 240904083 means the unit was manufactured on September 4, 2024, and was the 83rd unit from that production run.
