What is the life expectancy, 1 or 2 years?

Depends how often you use it. Mine lasted seven years and this is a pack of ten bulbs. You'll never use them all!

My experience is less than a year when burning al the time. Buy them at the right price on Amazon, then it is a good deal.

Package says the life expectancy (based on 3 hours per day) is 1.83 years. I bought these for my oven and have been very happy with them so far.

I have not used for long period. But, I hope them to last very long. Originally, installed bulbs worked for about 10 years as under cabinet lighting.

I bought the package of 10 bulbs for what the GE dealer charged for 2. The first bulb out of the package burned out in a day or two. The second bulb has been in place for nearly a year. I can't be definitive as to the life of the bulbs but I know I've received good value. The bulbs (2) are used in the bottom of my microwave range exhaust. It typically is on all day and then used as a night light in the kitchen.

I received my order of these bulbs almost a year ago and installed one bulb. It is still working, however, when I installed a second bulb in a different socket two weeks ago, it started to smoke so I took it out. I tried another bulb and it also smoked so I threw the rest of the package out and bought a bulb at Home Depot. It did not smoke and is still working today.

It would depend on amount of use and how well you take care of it. I expect mine to last 5 years at least.

Industry standard is 5 years. Also, it is programmed to alarm once it reaches the end of life automatically to prompt you to replace it in a timely fashion.

I believe it is 2 years. I use my saw a lot and did have to get it replace. It was very simple.

What you mean by "last 2-3 years"? My has been a year, I don't think it will die soon.

Can vary greatly. Mine lasted less than a year. But also had some that lasted two years.

They don't really expire as much as they just lose potentcy. They're prob good for about 2 years

I believe the item is meant to last at least 2 years. Besides free occasional battery change.

The stated shelf life is 2 years, but given the packaging, I would confidently use this far beyond that as the other responders have indicated.

Most manufacturers say 10 years is the recommended life span. In my experience the units I replaced with this product lasted just short of 10 years. So keeping this in mind, if you are within 8 to 10 years, replacement of the current units is a very good idea. Hope this helps.

It depends on how you use it, generally speaking, it should last for at least 2 to 3 months.

I don't remember. I think 1 year. But I've had mine for at least 2 years and they still work great.

our first one lasted 2 years and they're not really hard to replace if you can find a new one.

Depending on the "Best By" date, it could be as long as 2 years. Check your package for more information.

the lifespan is measured in charge and discharge cycles. these batteries are rated for 2000 cycles.

Not really your question (purchased about 6 months ago) but this may help. Bought mine in July 2014. Warranty ends in May 2016, indicating a guaranteed life of about 2 years, give or take.
