Buy another cheap tube than only have 300 hours or so.
What brand tube are you buying now? Reci and EFR are fairly reputable. GSI is a step up in quality, but also significantly more expensive.
Also, are you overworking the tube? The manufacturers have very specific amps they can run at. You need to monitor this and make sure you run under the max power they spec out. Also you need to run a proper cooler. CW-5000 should be okay. CW-3000 is not good enough.

Our company uses a Trumpf fiber laser and it's been working very well for us for the last 10 years. We'd recommend the brand highly.

You might want to look at your water chilling system as well. If the tube isn't cooled well you'll lose power as it heats up. If you don't have one purchase a refrigerated chiller.
