I think the problem will be the components inside all the modules that start to fail, capacitors drying out etc and then gradually things won't work.

It would probably be possible to build custom modules to replace them but whether anyone will want to bother is the real question.

If you want to have an internal combustion engine in 2080 buy a fully mechanical petrol or diesel engine and cars with basic wiring and relays and it will still be going fine.

In my work we regularly deal with relay circuits 50+ years old that work fine.

So 240s etc will probably last a century, but my P3 will be long dead and recycled into a Tesla....
