no-one seems to think replacing batteries is a problem. I 
must have really old UPSs. I have 5 and everyone requires 
lots of screws and sliding pieces apart. Since the batteries 
fail every 2 years I wind up with a lost evening or two 
replacing them.

I found the Cyberpower unit on Intrex's website. It's a lot 
more UPS than I need (I need several small ones for each 
room with a computer), but it does have hot pluggable 
batteries, which is convenient.

Thanks Joe
