This older "break over" version (2nd and 3rd generation design) was tested only to 80,000 cycles as opposed the current "push button" version (4th generation design), which passed 120,000 cycles. I was actually not looking to further extend the life of the torque driver, but it just happened by itself because of certain changes to this tool design. So, we're talking about 420 years for your tool with your rate of tool use. I do think that waiting even for 420 years may be a bit boring, so I have a suggestion - if you could possibly use your Borka tool a bit more, like 100 times more per year, then I'll be happy to receive your Borka torque driver in approximately 4 years for testing, etc. Any work will be done free of charge for you, and I'll cover all the shipping charges... Thank you for being our customer!I was trying to think about how many torques I've done with my Borka, which I've had for 5 years and 3 months after ordering the kit from Mile High.
It's the older "break over" version, and I think I've used it at least 1000 times as I like to tinker with my firearms and move things around, as well as install scopes for other people.
That's about 15.87 torques per month on average for me which if I keep going at this rate means I need to get it calibrated in 630 years.
@kortik can I ship this back in 2651 to get it tested?
I had not realised that you have improved the design yet again to the push button.

Max, thank you. I was trying to develop the "perfect" design all these years. I think it is now real close to be "perfect", as far as I'm concerned.I had not realised that you have improved the design yet again to the push button. Nice work Boris!
I just penned an open letter to my customers stating the exact same. 2022 is looking to be a rough one with the supply-chain ....Something else I have to disclose to potential customers:
Current economic situation in the U.S. became very challenging for small businesses. If you're interested to purchase our products at 2021 prices, we strongly advise to do it now. Unfortunely, we'll be forced to raise our prices in 2022. Please take it under consideration.
