Leaving small devices on constantly.

I have some wireless speakers which use a wireless transmitter that is
plugged into the sound output of the computer.

I only actually listen to the wireless sound in other rooms 2 or 3
times a week for an hour or two**

I'm not concerned about the electricity being use, but about wearing
out the transmitter (about 4x4x1 inch) because I've been leaving it on
all the time.

If I remembered, it would be easy enough to turn it off because it's
wall wart is plugged into "Master Power Plus" a flat box that sits
under the monitor with 4 switches for whatever I plug into them (and a
master switch). I use one for the transmitter, one for the local
speakers, and I have used one for the monitor.

So, does leaving the xmitter on all the time, year after year, make it
likely to wear out sooner than turning it on 2 or 3 tiems a week for
an hour or two, or more each time since I'll probably go out after
lunch and won't want to go upstairs to turn the xmitter off again?


P.S. I've been looking to buy another xmitter. I did buy another set
of speakers but the ebay/CraigsList seller kept the xmitter back to
test speakers as he got them. I have one spare that seemed to stop
working years ago, but for some reason I wasn't convinced or I thought
it was some perimeter problem I could fix.

Thanks for any help you can give.


**But it's very good to have because I can eat my dinner or take a
bath or even work on the lawn mower outside etc. whenever I want
without having to stay in the office near the computer to listen to a
favorite program. RadioMaximus (free) has made it even easier to
listen to a variety of webradio.
