I know how to use them.
They just break randomly.
It could be the space you keep your console..You should keep the ps3 in an open area with plenty of space to ventilate, like a flat table or desk, rather than in an enclosed space..
Always keep an eye on the temps, if it's hitting high 70c*s, time to replace the thermal paste so it doesn't overheat. This will give a lot of life back into the console, but only if you do it routinely as maintenance.
