Ups Battery replacement

jayo2004 · 2007-10-15 10:48:53

Hi does any know where I can get battery replacements for APC 500 and APC 800 UPS. After 3 years batteries are starting to go on them, just wondering would it be wiser to buy some new UPS or is replacing batteries normal practice on 3 year old UPS.

I'd be wary of cheap replacements , i saw one split open and kill gear.
