<big>I forget the name but there is a battery
(automobile/truck/motorcycle/tow-motor/etc) supplier off Victoria near
the river.<br>
Seeing as they specialize in batteries and the UPS market is now active
- they may be able to help.<br>
<br>
Also: Sayal - on Fountain St.near Toyota.<br>

Seems that a number of the low end UPS' (keep your phone / modem /
switch /router up across a brief power glitch), don't have user
replaceable batteries. Who knew!
<br>
<br>
In this case, it seems like user replaceable means separate cover /
compartment where one's fingers can't touch any nasty components and be
shocked when stuck in to wrastle with the battery.
<br>
<br>
Of course, take the entire cover off and you're good to go.
<br>
<br>
Seems the batteries currently in them are very hard to find (one off
for manufacture / model?), but there's lots of space in there for a
larger battery. This one is 4"x2"x3.5" 'ish. Looks like there's room in
there for something as big as about 5"x3"x3".
<br>
<br>
Where can such 12V batteries be purchased in K-W?
<br>
<br>
Given UPS and replacement battery prices at CanadaComputers, having to
buy new again to replace seems outrageous
<br>
<br>
I'm sort of guessing K-W Surplus unlikely, Orion a possible.
<br>
<br>
Others?
