As a long time user of APC UPSes (and others) I've used many ABC
replacement batteries from NewEgg or Provantage online stores. They
are considerably cheaper and perform just as well. If you can find
a source many of the batteries for electric scooters are the same and
work equally as well but they're cheaper because theyre not intended
for computers. Just my $.02 worth.


Different operating conditions: scooter battery gets discharged and
recharged frequently; battery in a standby UPS is charged and rarely
(unless you have lousy power from your electricity supply utility)
discharged. Battery internal construction is usually different for those
two different uses.

Perce

Should be, but I nave had the exact same battery make and part number
in both scooter and UPS -- -- --
