Re: UPS Battery
I get mine from "Advice" they are on the road behind Complex or as its now called Centra or something like that.
They might have to order, which takes a day or 2, then pickup and pay.
Get the specs from current battery and Name of UPS
They also have a web site

Thank you for your reply . I managed to pick one up today that plugs in between the power and computer , works automatically when the power cuts , and saves me losing all my work , although I save as regularly as possible the Thai power catches me out .

Re: UPS Battery
I never replaced my sealed UPS battery with a new one just turfed it (only lasted 12 months) and ran some 2.5mm Sq flexible cable from the battery connectors in the UPS to a retired pick up battery. Been ever reliable for more than 10 years now AND the battery also powers my 3BB Router thus keeping it alive when the power fails. Also keeps an average desktop PC alive for up to 3 hours.
Not pretty but works a treat. AND NO, there is no problem with hydrogen fumes as the UPS only provides a trickle charge.

Re: UPS Battery
UPS replacement batteries are available from Amorn Electronics in the lower level of the main Big C. They're also available through the Lazada online shopping site.

Re: UPS Battery
I replaced my UPS batteries with motorbike batteries. They are sealed batteries and as long as they are nearly the same size as the originals to fit in the unit, you are good to go. As long as they are the same voltage, normally 12 volt there is nothing special about the originals.
