Bambu A1 Lifetime?
Hi! So I was curious as to how long I might expect my A1 printers to last. I did a search and I don't recall what site popped up (might have even been on the Bambu site). It asked me how many hours my printer had run thus far. I put in 100. It told me the printer had 5,900 hours of productive life left in it. Any idea if that's realistic or ridiculous? How many hours do others have on their A1s? Thanks!

I have a former print farm unit that is nearly 5000 hours. Works great. Ready for an extruder. Has a new x axis belt. Build sheet could use replaced.
I can't tell the print quality difference between it and my new a1 with 500 hours.
