which magic band is older

[bmslynch]

I threw my family's magic bands from the last couple of trips in a pile, so everyone in the family has two, and many are completely identical, same name/color. Is there a way to know which one is older? I'm doing an offsite stay in the next month, and my preference would be to take the band that is more likely to still have battery life. Perhaps there is a way to tell by band ID on the back? Thanks!

The MDX website and app both have sections that identify Magic Bands by ID.

For what it's worth, battery life is immaterial for any normal functions other than certain PhotoPass situations--a MB with a dead battery will still work for most things.

If you go under your profile on your My Disney Experience it will list all of your magic bands with their numbers. It should be in order that you got them.
