Note the two holes in the bottom. These holes let air into the battery to activate it. That is why it is called a zinc-air battery.

Once the orange tab (below) is removed the battery starts working (and thus running down) whether you use it or not.

Bottom view of the Rayovac 13 [L13ZA] zinc-air battery showing the orange tab covering and sealing the 2 air holes so the battery is not activated and thus has a long shelf life.

The orange tab is the standard color for all 13-sized zinc-air batteries, no matter who makes them.
