Synergistic Research MPC plugged in 24/7?


Just curious if anyone knows if the Mini Power Coupler (MPC) is supposed to be left plugged in and powered up 24/7? I read on another thread that one user had their MPC just die on them. It made me wonder if the MPC has some components in them with limited lifespan?

Tom, you also have to take into consideration the fact that the transformer within the MPC is putting out only 24VDC as compared to the cap, which is rated at 50VDC, is therefore really never being stressed at all and only loafing along, and will last under normal usage 7 to 10 years.
