How to extend the life of windshield wiper blades

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Windshield wipers

In this video, the YouTuber gives us a valuable suggestion regarding the life of windshield wipers. Especially if we keep them under the sun or under trees, or even in extreme temperatures, the rubber of the wipers is subject to damage, sticking to the windshield and becoming less efficient when we need them. He suggests keeping the wipers lifted, but let's be honest, it's useful but not very aesthetically pleasing, and it can also be dangerous if it's very windy. There is an alternative solution: small spacers to insert into the wiper, which keep it partially lifted discreetly. They can be found on Amazon with the code B0CM9K3TWP for 2.48 euros per pair, with a delivery cost of 0.99 euros.
