I found a seller on marketplace selling a pair of g5 XR15s for half of the new retail price. Seller claims only used for a year before upgrading to xr30s for his system since it’s large.

I’m ready to pull the trigger but just want to know if I should be concerned about anything or just send it and buy a g6 upgrade kid if the led board fries out in a year?

Pretty standard pricing regarding used "stuff".
Blue or pro?
Fit your " plans"?

There are a lot of speculation as to lifespans if not abused. Also odds, like 10% early electronic failures or more\ less.

Lifespan should be at least 5 yrs .

As to worrying about 1 yr down the road, who knows what will be available.
