Hasn't been used much since August '09 due to working away from home.

(Touch wood) no problems. It even fired up on the button last week and has been kept outside, (under an Oxford Stormex cover), since May and it has an alarm! Result!

Was well coated in ACF50 and WD40 before I started working away.
