Subj : Tiers To : JACK YATES From : TODD COCHRANE Date : Thu Aug 02 2001 03:57 am JY>If the UPS uses a 12V battery you can replace it with a deep-cycle marine JY>battery, the kind used with trolling motors, for a lot less than the cost of JY>the OEM battery. They'll last longer during a power outage, too. the guy at JY>the Hardware store tried this with his stoure's UPS and it works. One of those JY>red-and-white battery boxes is a nice touch, and it does require a minimal JY>amount of rewiring becasue the battery won't fit in the UPS. Hmmm may have to look into this.. I can handle the re-wiring and the box actually has some spare room so it may fit will have to see...
