[NTLUG:Discuss] OT: APC UPS Battery Replacement

[Jack Snodgrass]

I need to replace the Battery in my APC UPS. 

Any one now where I can get a ( cheap ) replacement
battery? Do I have to get something from APC or 
can I go to Tanner's Electronics and get one of 
their surplus batteries or what exactly? I've 
never had to replaced a UPS battery before. 

The removable panel covering the battery has
24volt 10Amp on it. Is that a 'standard' as far
as UPS batteries go? 

Also.. the connector on the battery... is that
likely to be standardized or am I going to have
to find a battery with an APC UPS connector on
it? 

Thanks - jack
