Hi all, great site.
At work today we had a 25 year old constantly running oscilloscope start cooking that much it set off the fire alarms. So now my company is worried about all our other old electronic instruments. I've tried finding out if electronic components have a life span before they become a potential fire hazard.
My question is can anybody say how long we should use electronic instruments for? Items such as scopes, psu's, amplifiers, recievers, transmitter etc
