UPS Batteries

[wombat099]

Does anyone know where I can buy good replacement batteries for my 2 UPS's. I have to replace the batteries every 16 months. And the batteries from Amorn are now 670bt and have only a 1 year warranty.

I know that I can do some research and probably replace the UPS's but maybe someone has ideas. Both are Sydome.

Lazada has several suppliers.

You only need to match the volts and Amp Hours

(you can go bigger on the AHs if it will physically fit)

 

Quite often the charger section fails, in which case a new battery won't fix the problem.

Thanks. The batteries do/ and hold a charge for over 1 year. Then they slowly start to hold less charge until they stop holding a charge altogether.

You could try the emergency lights section of HomePro and the like, they sometimes have those batteries.

I get my UPS batteries from HomePro. They seem to last a long time.

In most UPS the batteries are good for a lot longer than 16 months. Maybe you should look for good quality instead of cheap price. I remember Amorn has (at least had) batteries from different manufacturers. I always bought the Japanese batteries and they were good for several years.

I get most of my sealed-lead acid batteries from NPE in Zeer, if you can't find the one you need there ...

My FIL is a motor mechanic and supports FB batteries.

Just worth mentioning.

 

UPS batteries usually have spade connector terminal whereas motorbike batteries, which will do, have nut/bolt connection terminal.

I've seen 'original' Syndome batteries online. Next time I'll get a battery with higher amps. 8 or 9 A, they are available.

Be careful that the dimensions of the higher amp batteries may be too big for the UPS case.

Thanks. I know one of the technicians working at amorn and he told me that they have them. I haven't been there to check it out. But this guy has been working there for a very long time.
