The next-to-leading order corrections in the HQET expansion are included non-perturbatively. Based on N-f = 2 gauge field ensembles, covering three lattice spacings a approximate to (0.08-0.05) fm and pion masses down to 190 MeV, a variational method for extracting hadronic matrix elements is used to keep systematic errors under control. In addition we perform a careful autocorrelation analysis in the extrapolation to the continuum and to the physical pion mass limits. Our final results read f(B) = 186(13) MeV, f(Bs) = 224(14) MeV and f(Bs)/f(B) = 1.203(65). A comparison with other results in the literature does not reveal a dependence on the number of dynamical quarks, and effects from truncating HQET appear to be negligible. %K Lattice QCD %K Heavy Quark Effective Theory %K Bottom quarks %K Meson decay %R 10.1016/j.physletb.2014.06.051 %U http://arxiv.org/abs/arXiv:1404.3590 %U https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2014.06.051 %P 349-356
