I've seen more than one fail but I recall them being maybe a 50 amp
rectifier and running at 20 or so amps max charge rate for hours on
end. Even with those numbers I don't see a lot of failures but when
they do it doesn't take long to troubleshoot. If your application runs
at only 25% of that load you may never see a failure but anything
man-made is capable of failing. That's why I have a small 4 AH backup
battery on my fuel pumps. It was only needed once but when I needed it
it was there.
