The problem is engineering tools got better and
better so the fudge
factor needed to make sure the part lasted as long as it was designed
for got lower and lower. Metal use dropped as plastics got stronger, so
parts get brittle with age instead of lasting forever. Things like this
are done to make parts cheaper to compete better (basically to squeeze
more profit out of something), so we have items designed to fail after
the warranty expires. The cheaper something is sold for the shorter the
warranty needed so by design things become cheaper and disposable.
Fine Print. Warranty may be void under the condition the user applies
electric current this product. I think standard caps are only good for a
few 1000 hours. You get what you pay for.
