Looking for Eastar 430-0002 transformer. Anyone point me in the right
direction?

Probably only available from the manufacturer or their priority supplier.
APC probably will not sell you replacement parts.

Absolutely correct, unless it's batteries or option cards you're
ordering. APC is one of the most hostile companies towards user self-
maintenance I've ever had the misfortune to come across.

If I were shopping for a new UPS, I would probably not choose APC
for that very reason. I would probably look at Powerware (formerly Best
Power Products) at http://www.powerware.com/

The only other source I could think of would be to find a 'donor'
unit. Are you sure the transformer is bad, though? They don't die very
often.

Happy hunting.
