   In a message on Saturday 12-03-15 mark lewis said to Holger Granholm:   
      
   Good morning Mark,   
      
    HG> Please do the check the pricing carefully. I saved 50 bucks by not   
    HG> ordering a new one from the original supplier.   
      
   ml> exactly! i've got a UPS that needs new batteries (has two taped   
   ml> together) or needs replacing... i gotta pull the stack out and see   
   ml> what they are...   
      
   In my case, I think that the batteries I use are actually intended for   
   scooters, motor cycles, small mowing/garden machines and such, as starter   
   batteries, but since their life span is 7 - 8 years in my UPS, they'll do   
      
   There's only a small hitch, the "Abiko" connectors on the batteries, are   
   narrower than the original, but the wider female connectors on the leads   
   seem to make enough contact.   
      
   I may have bought the first replacement battery from the UPS supplier,   
   but even the replacement had those narrower poles.   
      
      
   Have a nice day,   
      
   Holger
