Default Do Polyswitches ever go bad?

The discussion of the device in series with the Cannon XLR jogged
my memories of the Polyswitch, a protective device whose resistance
jumps up when sufficiently heated (via current), but goes back down
when it has cooled off.

We ended up not using them, but now I am curious if they show up in
damaged equipment.






I know I've bought at least one, so the answer must be yes.
