Envoy S keep failing, replace?

I had a system installed in 2016 with M250 microinverters and an Envoy-S monitoring system. In 2024, the Envoy S started doing the 4-amber blinking light thing and support said was dead and out of warranty. I bought another Envoy S from eBay, got support to transfer it to my account, provisioned it onto my system with Toolkit, and had data again for my panels. Then sometime end of January 2026, it just stopped working - this time, different symptoms but support basically concluded that it was a defect with the hardware and because it wasn't sold to me initially it wasn't under warranty.

So, what should I do here? The envoy-S seems like really old tech (10+ years) and paying another ~$700 for another one seem like a waste. Any suggestions (aside from 'just don't have monitoring'?)
