Contact for refurbishing laptop batteries.
Sent my old IBM laptop battery to this place in Miami with $29 and they replaced the interior with japanese cells and electronics for $29 inc. shipping,
versus $44 plus $12 shipping offered by others on Ebay. It seems to hold charge and recharge well- neat job- you can't see any work was done on it. http://www.refurbishedibmbattery.com/ check home page for other (nonIBM) batteries. Chris. |

Battery backups are usually sealed lead acid or gel cells, not NiMH or Li-Ion. What model is your UPS?

If you can get a size, type, and voltage on the battery, you can probably buy a cheap generic battery for it. The APC's we deal with will take generic $16 batteries - same damn battery that APC sells for 60 bucks. They are 12 volt 7.5 amp sealed lead acid with pushon blade terminals.

I get them from Batteries Plus with a commercial account. They have a Memphis store, it's easy to open an account, bring your tax resale certificate and a business card. Their shelf price is $25.99. The exact discount percentage is manager's discretion.
