Let's just say, if you run Fortis's's's, you'd better keep a module in stock.
(they have gone through at least 3-4 updates, and they do get more reliable each time)
I've had bad levers in under 20 hours, and other units have gone 5000+ hours perfectly.

Once they are out of warranty, I've had good luck with opening them up, and doing the old 'make 1 out of 2' thing.

The majority of failures I see, are simply broken mini-levers.
Occasionally, you'll get 1 (or 2 or 3) that won't always sit in neutral. (it'll sit around 4% and cause 'return to neutral' errors) You have no choice but to replace. There is no other way.

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
