Anyone actually have to use a RF bino warranty?

Whenever it comes to RF binos, warranty is always brought up, with the common complaint being "electronics fail." Certainly not denying that claim. Has anyone ever had issues with their RF bino electronics or had to warranty a pair specifically for the electronics? My guess would be that RF bino electronics are no more or less reliable than other electronics hunters use. Just looking to build a sample size.

For the last 9 years I've been using Leica Geovid HD-R 10x42's ( closed bridge) with great satisfaction.
I came across a used set of the same that was having RF issues, because of that they were for sale at a great price.
I bought them and sent them in to Leica. For a little over $200 they replaced the RF and went through the entire bino bringing it to like new condition, their CS was great.
Meanwhile my old original Geovids continue seeing heavy use and have not missed a beat.
I gave up about stressing over the "what ifs" when it comes to RF binos.
