Happy New Year Internetworkers!

Does anyone know a good (i.e. inexpensive) local source for sealed batteries
for use in a UPS? I have a bunch of APC Smart UPS 1400s that need new
batteries, and I am trying to avoid having them shipped, since they cost
about $25 a set to ship.

I tried Batteries Plus, but they charged twice as much as I can order them
for.

Anyone local have a source? I am hoping to pay about $60/set.

Thanks,
David

Hi David,

If you find anything close to that price, please post about it. I need a couple of pairs of RBC7's this year too. Looks like prices are up about 1/3 from when I last bought them a couple of years ago. I went with Power Quality Inc (powerqualityinc.com) then.

Shipping costs are up everywhere though, so it doesn't seem like batteries that weigh 30 lbs a pair are going to be very cheap.

Good luck,

Scott C.
