My last chain lasted 35K and I only swapped it because one of the links had snapped.
(picture taken about 6 months later after the chain had been sat outside btw).
This btw is one thing you *have* to be careful of, because chains last so much longer with a scotoiler you *have* to regularly check them (you should anyway) for problems like this, with a normal lube you get to look at the chain once a week, with a scotoiler you
could just leave it for months.
