I'd just run it until it fails, chances are pretty good you'll get years of service and be able to enjoy all the cool features.  If I wanted a neutered one with lame smoke control, I could have kept the MTH model.  I plan on using the cool features until they don't work.  At that point, I'll take a stab at repairing the board, which I suspect is quite possible for many failures.  When all else fails, then it's time to get out the bandaids.

You make a good point. At least I’ll know in advance what to do when the day of failure comes, if it comes.

Just ran it again and realize it doesn’t bother me enough to crack it open for this little thing. It’s a great piece for its time and still holds up. I really enjoy it.
