However, these LiFePo4 batteries are much more expensive. • Warning: Do not use cheap LiFePO4 batteries • • BATTERY TESTING GONE WRONG!

You cannot use a standard serial cable, APC uses a custom crossover. • Expected problem • Battery meter will be off. The new batteries have a much higher capacity than the old SLA batteries and the UPS will not understand this. The UPS will think that it is low while the battery still has more than 50% capacity left. The UPS will stay on and deliver power but if you use an automated shut-down at less than 10% power then your devices will be shut down long before the new battery is drained. • Music: Soundtrack from the game Tyrian by Alexander Brandon • https://alexanderbrandon.bandcamp.com...
