What is life expectancy of lighting systems?

Moved a battery cable and smoke, smoke, smoke. Wow, no even 14 months on battery. Both insulated lines are now showing massive exposed wires. This was a performance evo dual light set, not cheap at $150. But if just barely lasts over a year, not a good buy. Think of bitting the bullet and going for something like a Jet or L&M, but if they just last a year or so, it might be better to just think of lights as disposable and get a cheaper set.

I ride year round, so need something that will work in the winter.

So what's your experience, how long do lights/batteries last?
