Hi all,
the battery on my 1100va home UPS went dead yesterday and I've been
looking into replacement batteries. A real APC brand replacement is
rather pricey, but a 3rd party called Battery Technology seems to make
batteries to fit most APC UPSs for about half the price.
At work we always just buy the APC replacement, so I have no experience
with any other manufacturer's replacements. Have any of you used UPS
batteries from BT, or any other third party? Good or bad experience?
I'm wondering if it's a you get what you pay for situation.
Any advise would be appreciated.
Thanks,
