I have a Cyberpower 550VA USP whose battery needs replaced. I see many

I know some of the generics aren't the greatest. Suggestions? Thanks!


Heh, being you can get a whole new UPS for $40...

and the replacement battery runs around $30, I really don't see the point.

Even the retail places like Office Depot and NewEgg selling the complete
unit
for $52, it's still not much of a decision to make.

Besides Money, Ecologic impact should also be am important factor. It
requires a lot less land fill to recycle a battery vs replacing the whole
unit. Our Planet earth is in trouble, we have to consider it aswell as just
money.
