What is the life span of the LI

Do these things wear out.. just wondering because there are times when i don't need the protection and can turn it off

Hard to tell, I know very early models had issues with sealing, but since for the most part has been corrected. I will assume where you live and weather conditions will determine overall life span.

As for turning them off, I doubt that will prolong the life of the units.

I suspect just as other jammer units, just having the unit on will not effect the life span becasue it is not doing anything, it is just looking for a signal. If it was jamming all the time I would suspect that they would die quicker but most people don't jam everyday or multiples times per day so no worries.

It might also depend on how much you drive seeing as how the heads are outside the car in a very harsh environment depending on the weather etc.

Even having them switched off will not save them from this IMO.

it should not matter what environment they are in, if they are properly built and sealed from the environment they should last the life of the car. They might fail because of a component failure but it should not happen because of the environmental conditions.

My Blinder M20 had a 2.25-2.5 year lifespan

My LI will be 2 years in this June and when I am saying 2 years it will be 2 years with my current heads the only thing i switched was my CPU so I would have the TruSpeed Alert
