| I used 4 of the deep cycle retired UPS 12V @ 150 Ah in series for my UPS 
system.  These replaced the 4 original 7 Ah batteries, external of course.

 I use 6 deep cycle batts charged from solar or can use wall charger. I feed 
a inverter to power supply so the shack always has 13.8 volts. Deep cycle 
batts hold up well and about $ 85.00. My ups for computer has been changed 
over to out board deep cycle batt. and will keep me up and running for 
about 8 hours. Run time is great and I think its the only way to go. 73

Subject: [TenTec] lithium ion batteries or ups?
the other day I was at a battery and light shop to get a couple of 
replacement batteries for one of my ups units.
I noticed they had rechargable lithium batteries presumable for cars…very 
light, small but pricey and had comparable ratings to full sized lead acid 
batteries… 
Wonder if anyone has used these in a ups(uninterruptible power supply) 
before? 
My station 3kw ups uses a 48 vdc, 76 amp hr vdc battery pack that will be 
due for replacement one of these days.
