Any reason to expect them to last longer?
What is expected lifetime of these?
They're supposed to last 30 years. So maybe it's too early to tell.
Your link says a lifetime of 15 years. Capacity would degrade over time though.
Look at the batteries lifespan, it's like 25 years. Go look at data before spewing nonsense.
Which is a good thing, I can't see why these devices shouldn't last five years or more.
Not a big issue, they last for decades nowadays
Lifetime these days means 3-4 years.
What’s the lifetime of these things once they’ve been running hot for 2-3 years
Just max it out, and it'll last at 5-10 years
