Great to know - keeping our games alive into the future relies on these sorts of products. Let us know in a few weeks if there are (or are not) any issues.

but I think you will find they are mosfets not transistors and therefore a lot less prone to damage as the mosfets are 10 times more robust that the darlington transistors used originally so the chances of them ever needing replacement are pretty slim.
