Thank you, Gordon! I took the whole UPS to Batteries Plus, and the guy there
removed the old batteries (two 6-volt batteries, hooked up in series, not
leaking at all), found new ones to match, hooked them together, and put them
in). I love that store. The people who work there seem knowledgeable and are
certainly friendly. They also recycle the old batteries.

My experience is that you can get a New APC UPS on sale cheaper than you
can purchase quality batteries for them.

Thank you, Leythos! I did look up new APC UPS prices, and they were
substantially higher than the cost of the batteries. I'm not sure where I'd
get one on sale...
