cannot be predicted with any certainty. Every part has a Mean Time To Failure (MTTF) as do the devices they are in. This is a statistical measurement, not an absolute value, some parts fail before the MTTF and some never fail, thus the idea of a mean. I've had my SS PS Audio 100C for 25+ years and it has worked perfectly. I'm sure others have failed, some spectacularly, in that same time.
