        Physical UPSs are good for decades if not abused. Don't replace unless these is something wrong with them.

        I have always replaced the unit not the batteries, especially if they are the old white APCs. Then again, I can hear the voice of the client, "it's only $20 more to get a new one"

        So I just did a test online for the APC Back-UPS ES 550:

        replacement: http://staples.com: $71.99, http://bestbuy.com $74.99 (Back-Ups 600)

        battery: http://batteriesplus.com $29.99-34.99, refurbups.com $21.99 + 10.43 for UPS Ground shipping = $32.42

        I'm sold on the idea of the battery replacement especially if I can tell the client that the units are still good.

                            It's not a clap. It's stigmata.
