Battery replaced once, I believe it was some 7 years old.

It's a APC Back-UPS ES 8 Outlet 700VA 230V, paid 70 eur for it (clearance
sale). Replacement battery was 54 eur. Like mentioned
it's NOT just for the Pi but also for the fiber router/VOIP as cell phone is
unreliable here.
Since then for other purposes I've also got an Eaton Ellipse ECO 1600 @ 184
eur (Amazon daily sale).
SO I guess looking around for reasonable prices may make sense....
This one https://www.amazon.co.uk/Eaton-850B-UPS-Uninterruptible
Type-Black-white/dp/B0B3RQN8QT @ (today) 126 UKP is similar to the
APC, includes shutdown & monitoring via USB + software. I trust Eaton as much
(or more) as APC.
