What is the lifetime of this unit?

I've only had them for 5 months....but the person who introduced them to me said 3 years. They really work for me.

I've had the Nite-Guard for about 14 months now and it's still working great. It really does scare the critters a way.I consider it a good investment.

I bought 3 last summer and left them out, covered in several feet of snow, all winter. Once the snow melted and the sun could get to them the took up where they left off and are still flashing away. I highly recommend them. I have 5 bantam chickens and live in the country where we have problems with coons, foxes and coyotes. Nothing has even come near since I started using these.

When they say 7 year life, they're really close. Bought 4 of these units in Oct, 2004. They have worked well over the years and haven't had any problems. Last month, one generated an "ERR.." code and just last week, another generated the same "ERR.." code. It looks like they've lived their useful life and I'll replace them without calling the manufacturer. Technically, I'm just curious how they can predict the 7-year life...???? Great product though.

Can't find it from the manual. Suppose the life span of the battery depends very much on usage of special features like the lamp and altimeter. Otherwise, I would expect two years the minimum acceptable life span.

No clue. They sent me a new one as soon as I started having problems. I think I started having problems with the old unit at about 3 months. New one has been going strong ever since.

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

From the research I've done it depends on your usage. I've had mine for almost a year. The person who recommended it to me has had his longer. The way mine is installed it's going to be easy to switch out the unit when necessary.

I have used mine 60+ times. Still tons of life and doesn't seem like its going to quit working any time soon.

Well, this unit is just bad. Send it back, have another one sent out. I've had mine at least 3 years, maybe more and I use it for all things with batteries. It's been a good unit, your unit is just bad.

I don't know but I do know that this unit went bad after the 90 day warrenty expired. I do not recommend this unit.

I assume the warranty of life time would be honored, if I live that long. At least we haven't burned any units up, or over heated them.

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.

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.

The unit comes with a 24 month warranty on operating parts. We've had our about a year and no problems whatsoever. So far, so good!

Battery life is not stated, however we have had our batteries in it since June, and they are still strong. My guess is that the batteries will last well over a year. It is a nice unit and good looking.

Hi, I've had it for around a year and it is working great. I wouldn't know what is the complete average life of it though.
