I was an engineer at Pyrotector before Chloride bought the company and can say that the two prototype 30-52\'s I have, made in 1977, are still working fine. We never released any shelf or operating life projections in those days but not much can go wrong with them except maybe an electrolytic capacitor drying out and shorting and if that happened, the operating voltage is so low that I doubt it would ignite. Plus, as long as the test button triggers the alarm, it should be fine. The test button is designed not to interrupt the light path but to bend the light path enough to simulate less than 2% smoke obscuration, the design criteria of the day. I hope this helps.
