There have been a few threads on this. Look at your VCR or microwave. The VFD dims but is still functional after 10 or even 15 years. Those with first-generation SliMP3s from 2000/2001 (?) haven't noted any problems. The SB3 will be obsolete long before the VFD outright fails. -- Mark Lanctot 'Sean Adams' Response-O-Matic checklist, patent pending!'
