Please define further "Failure of integral electrical components". If any component stops working as designed?

Unsure. I had to replace the whole thing (most recent purchase) when my older one died.

I can't be very helpful I'm afraid. It's unusual for a manufacturer to replace parts or offer to fix things anymore. (Which really sucks, but...) You may be able to find a business that fixes electronics that could do this for you.

Sorry, I haven't had that problem and can't give specific advice. What happens when you turn it off and then on again? Doing that often clears a problem with a variety of electronic devices.

The only thing that could have caused this is wires breaking inside the unit. Was it dropped? contact the manufacturer about the warranty.

It would depend, when did you buy it? what caused it to fail? i would recomend calling the manufacturer.

Yes, I think there is warranty, but I would have a hard time understanding what kind of failure in your home might cause this product to fail.

Probably thermally induced expansion. Does it also crack after you turn it off?Thermal expansion and contract differences between materials is one of the main causes of failures in electronics.

This happened to me when I first tried to clean out the unit. I didn't want to take a chance to I separated the motor assembly from the fluid chamber and dried it, while keeping the wires attached, with a fan. Once apart I could see that the electronics could be exposed to water. After I felt comfortable that the electronics were dry I reassembled the unit and it worked just fine. Now 'm very carful about keeping the unit facing down when cleaning.

All of todays cameras use CCD devices as well as other electronic components and many are in service 24/7 for years. To have a failure after 1.5 years tells me that a component may had had a weakness since manufacture and finally failed. It is also possible that if your vehicle's electrical system received a surge such as charging your battery, etc that would cause it to fail. Otherwise I would not be afraid to leave it "always turned on".

Good information. I later emailed Panasonic about the question and they were kind enough to send me a replacement for free. When I got the new one I opened the old one and guess what? No circuitry at all inside. So it's taking the variable voltage straight out of the lighter socket. And I saw the malfunction... One of the solder joints had broke and made a disconnect. Duh.

I'm not sure what you mean by fails. It does have a lifetime warranty. They will repair or replace. If it registers a problem with the electrical connection, it will keep you and your unit safe. If it is something like a power surge, etc it may register and stop working and you have to return it. I, personally, wouldn't be without this safeguard. It is much less expensive than insuring the replacement of the many things in your RV that would need to be replaced.

In my experience (stage lighting), with most LED units the electronics tend to fail before the LEDs do.

Just checked and see you got your answer from someone else. Good to know it won't go out in a power failure.

It's called arcing. When a bit of dust or lint passes through the plates, it closes a circuit between the 2 and makes an electrical spark. Nothing to worry about, unless it happens too often. I think it's mentioned in the owners manual.

They do not fail often, in my experience, but they do fail. Ours lasted 10 years and I replaced it easily with a new unit purchased through Amazon.

The electronic will fail I assure you since it's a multifunction lcd display for watch, alarm, stopwatch, temperature, etc in addition to that you'll have to grease up the blades, if submerged in water, or they will jam (out of previous experience)
