Any thoughts on the best products to use ?

Not really.
I haven't looked at appropriate products, due to being able to make do
with a BEST 600 UPS, fitted with 4 car batteries at a tenner each
from the scrapyard.

Searched for this on Google and only found links to the batteries used by
it.


If you want serious batteries for the purpose then have a search through
exidepower, they do the proper high capacity ones, not that cheap but
much better than car batteries.


Not at 10 quid per car battery, and less than that if I replace with an
equal mass of old battery.
(it's free money for the scrappy, the batteries are just shrink-wrapped
after being emptied, and sent off for recycling)


Suppose capacity and dependability aren't in the mindset
