AC/DC Power Adapters — Desktop & Wall-Mount Lifespan
In October, the consumption tax was raised, and the news reported that "there was no noticeable last-minute demand." At our house, we considered replacing home Products, but we missed the timing due to our busy schedules. This prompted us to think about the lifespan of home Products.
According to a website called "Miratomo Electric Power," the lifespan and replacement timing of home Products are listed as follows:
https://miratomo.jp/article/2275
| Home Products | Lifespan | Replacement Guideline |
|---|---|---|
| Refrigerator | 10 years | 8 years |
| Washing Machine | 8 years | 7 years |
| Microwave Oven | 10 years | 5~10 years |
| Vacuum Cleaner | 6~8 years | 6 years |
| Air Conditioner | 7~10 years | 5~7 years |
| LCD/Plasma TV | 6~7 years | 6 years |
Looking again, I was surprised to find that TVs, which have no mechanical moving parts compared to refrigerators and washing machines, have a shorter lifespan.
The way we think about lifespan may differ depending on whether a product is replaced based on personal preference or trends, or used for a long time unintentionally.
Now, regarding the lifespan of the AC/DC Power Adapters — Desktop & Wall-Mount, it can be supplied with a lifespan of 5 to 10 years, or even longer depending on the application, in line with the lifespan of the Products it is used with.
However, if the AC/DC Power Adapters — Desktop & Wall-Mount is used with a Products that is typically replaced every few years, having a lifespan of more than 10 years would be an unnecessary cost.
On the other hand, even for Products with the same function, the actual years until the end of their lifespan may vary depending on the frequency and duration of use.
