Hello francois31, You are very welcome, I just received an update on this matter.

After reviewing the case, it is important to mention that we have different vendors, depending on the Intel® NUC model. 

Based on that, could you please provide the mfg & model number of the adapters you are interested in? This is for us to try to gather the MTBF of those specific power adapters.

Hello francois31, I just received an update on this matter.

Intel® uses multiple vendors for the AC power adapters included in the Intel® NUC box. These include, but are not limited to, LiteOn*, Asian Power Devices (APD)*, Huntkey* and FSP*. Could you please confirm the brand of the adapter you are interested in?
