Unless abused I've never had one fail yet. I have a bunch too. Some run 24x7x365 in mod-six. Those four that sold recently in fast slow sign (for too much) a couple you could see were pushed way too hard. You could see blue plasma forming down by the segment wiring... Too much current or voltage. You can do that to any tube... Run them so hard the segment wiring starts to light up too... that's not a good sign at all. Do that long enough and it won't ever not light up.
