Well, the replacement batteries for my APC Smart-ups 750XL finally arrived, and I am planning on ‘hot swapping’ the batteries today. NO server downtime will be associated with this task. Replacement is indicated because a few months ago, they started failing auto self test, then they passed for a month or so, then started failing again. So, I think they are toast. 😉

Well, batteries all changed, and after pressing the Test button, the dreaded red Replace Battery light is out, hopefully not to be seen again for another 5 or 6 years. Upon replacing the batteries, I noticed that I was using batteries that had been ‘refurbished’ in Apr 2009. Not bad battery life…. That means that they were from 2007. 😀
