5+ years with mine and they work great. The only "problem" I have with them
is that after a short power outage, they seem to want to come back on and stay
on. Sometimes I'll have to kill power to them again for a good 10 minutes to
allow them to reset - then they're fine again. I rarely lose power, so it's
not a big deal.
They've never failed to send out their +1 signal (my main use is a driveway
charm) and they just plain work great.
