replacement batteries for APC UPSs?
Buying them from APC is very expensive. I even thought of buying a small
12v lead acid battery and just have it next to my UPS and connect it
with some homemade wires.

Thanks, for your input. I just ordered a PowerStar battery off E-bay
with free Shipping.
I decided to buy one that is sealed (SLA) and not screw around anymore.

I'm slightly puzzled: here in UK, the only moderate-capacity lead-acid
batteries widely available (and that not very, mainly from Maplin) _are_
the sealed sort; are small car-battery-like (non-sealed) batteries
commonly available in USA?
