What is the designed lifespan for your product ?

1 second = 86400 per day = 11.57 days
10 seconds = 8640 per day = 115.7 days
30 seconds = 2880 per day = 347 days
1 minute = 1440 per day = 694 days
5 minutes = 288 per day = 9.5 years
10 minutes = 144 per day = 19.0 years
30 minutes = 48 per day = 57.1 years
1 hour = 24 per day = 114 years
2 hours = 12 per day = 228 years
6 hours = 4 per day = 685 years
12 hours = 2 per day = 1370 years
24 hours = 1 per day = 2740 years

This post of yours is brilliant. You explain very clearly the way the million cycles can be used up and how fast.
