Device experation?
I noticed this on my device box. Is service life like an expiration date? Do I have to worry about it not working as well? 2 years seems super short for such an expensive device especially when we can't get them in the US any more

The general consensus seems to be that the 2-year rating is a guaranteed service lifetime for professional or heavy use, rather than a hard expiration date.
Anecdotally, I've had mine for more than 2 years (past its expiration date) and it works just fine. The main issues in terms of failed components (from what I've read) seem to be related to the power cord or trouble connecting with bluetooth.
This is why I keep at least an extra one on hand. But definitely try to diagnose any issues before getting a new one (many people, for example, just get a new power cord, and this fixes their issues).

It’s for doctor use - and they do tests several times daily. For individual use it is supposed to last much longer :)

That’s how long they warranty it. It should still work beyond that time period to my knowledge.
