What is the lifespan of this product?

Great question! It appears to be well made and durable, but time will tell. I have two dogs that are not happy that their view to the surrounding yards has been taken away from them, but they have not tried to climb it yet (or if they have, they have not torn it). If I were to have to replace it in two years at about the same cost, I would be happy with that. It is maintenance free and a lot less expensive than privacy fence.

Depends on the location if it is in a high desert area with the sun beaming on it all day than 1-2 years approx. if it is an area where the shade is more readily available than 2-4 years approx.

Since I just recently purchased and installed this replacement part (within the last 2 months), I have no actual experience as to its actual life span. The original diaphragm lasted about 15 years. Hope this helps.

It doesn't have a short shelf life, but I can't remember how long it is off the top of my head. Go to the manufacture's site and contact them.

I don't have an exact amount of time for its shelf life. But in my opinion, it lasts long enough to be satisfactory, whether in a drawer or whether it's been used to glue something. Nothing, as we know, lasts forever.

Mine has died after about a year of continuous use....maybe a year and a half tops.

I haven't had mine very long so can't verify the information, but according to the specs it is supposed to last for 50,000 hours of use which works out to over 5 1/2 years of steady use. I don't expect something like this to last that long, but it would be a nice surprise.

Celeste, I currently own 6 of them and they are close to being 6 years old. However, I really don't anticipate they will last forever, I have read several reviews of units lasting as long as 15 years. If mine give out today, it's a cheap investment, and they work...

I could not find an expiration date on mine. There might of been one on the box. I use my product every day and it normally last me at least 4 - 6 months. I would say at least a year.

It is a fairly cheaply made product, so I think it is unlikely it will last a long time. Probably 5-7 years at best.

Hmm. Sorry Donald, I don't know. I think it is 5 years, but that's a guess. I have never had to use it. I love this product. Well worth the expense and very well constructed.

Installed over 4 years ago and it still works perfectly. Shelf life?? I don't know but since it has no moving parts, I would expect many more years of service.

I believe the product states that it only lasts for approx. 4 months. I'm not positive, but I think I read that on the directions.

It can last 4+ years if properly maintained which is clear that you are doing. Great Job. We do recommend that after 10 yrs you do replace it proactively. You can call our customer support line at 800.9910.0466 ext 3 if you are in need of further assistance

Overall lifetime, I don't know. We've had ours for at least a year with no obvious performance loss.

Not sure, I've only had it a couple of months. With normal usage it should last at least a year or maybe more.

My recent purchase has almost 2 years remaining, so the product probably has at least a 2-year shelf life, could be more.

From my experience, the life expectancy is about 2 years. The only reason I keep buying these batteries is because I have several pieces of equipment that uses this battery and I don't want to just throw them away. I have about 4 of these batteries and i keep one in the charger most of the time. I have thrown away about 3 of them in the last 5 years. The battery will do well for about a year and then it will lose it's charge sitting on the shelf. I'm guessing these batteries that we are buying are several years old when we receive them. Sorry to tell you this.
