Bob, Modern Rubidium units like the PRS10 Have a lamp life of over 20 years (of continuous operation).
Vintage HP 5065A units likewise had a very long lamp lifetime. All the other common failures are just in the electronics. The main interest for time nutters is how long will the lamp last in my 2nd hand rubidium! Considering the low cost of modular rubidiums these days just get another when the original dies!
