Hi Dr. Lavine,
I have a question not directly related to the post. How durable are these x-ray sensors? Vendors are asking us to buy extended warranty on the sensors. Usually how long will a sensor last? What kind of problems will this kind of sensors have? Thanks.

Normal life span for the sensors is 3-4 years. I don't typically recommend extended warranties as they usually only cover manufacturer's defects...and after a few years, if they fail, it's most likely due to damage, which isn't covered. Instead, talk to your insurance carrier about a no-fault or accidental-damage rider on your policy so that the sensors will be covered no matter why they fail.
When they fail, it's often a short in the cable (sensor fires randonly on its own) or cable separation (sensor will not fire).
