it depends on how much current you feed it. If you feed it too much, it will die shortly. If you feed it the correct amount, I'm sure the rated lifespan of the diode is around 5,000 hours at minimum.

not if you're using a current regulated driver that can handle to voltage that the batteries are putting out
