Hey, Jim remember when you used to go there, to get your tubes tested, now you go to the doctor's office to get you tubes tested.

I still have a bunch of RS lifetime guaranteed tubes. I've been tempted to try and get them replaced. Ask the high school kid behind the counter, the one wearing the wrinkled slacks and sneakers.... and see where that gets me. Probably end up with a new phone.

According to someone I know at RS, they will still honor them but the tube you get has a standard 1 year warrenty.
