Hi all, My UPS battery has just died on me and I'm looking to replace it. I'm wondering if anybody has any 12v lead acid batteries on hand that they'd part with - the UPS has already been modified to use an external battery, so size/shape really doesn't matter too much (it was previously running on an old car battery).
If anybody has anything suitable, let me know what you have as well as what you want for it. :-)

Sorry, I just traded all my old UPS batteries (about 30 of them) when I got my new ones.
I might be able to dig up one or 2, but I can't be certain.
Hi Terry.. how many? We have just removed a whole bunch of 12V 5AH batteries from several UPS's in the lab here.. your mileage(kilometreage?) may vary, but they are free to a good home.

Aspitech now have a bunch of new "but faulty" "Car Battery Jump Starter Compressor Inverter Power Pack with solar panel" with unused SLA batteries in them. http://www.aspitech.com.au/ They look like this.
They have been trying to decide how best to process them. Give them a call and make an offer.
