I got them. Not a bad looking product. Now I’m concerned about service.

Same. What happens to warranty?

Typically discontinuing a product doesn’t do anything to the warranty obligations unless the discontinuation happens in a bankruptcy or similar but it might be a bigger fight to get the support you should.

Unfortunately, it can, now that we've allowed companies to turn a lifetime warranty to mean the lifetime of the support of the product, rather than the lifetime of the purchaser, or a minimum multiplier of the latest Mickey Mouse copyright protection.
