Hi,
Correct, but it was just for fun.

UPS batteries generally are not swapped to get longer battery life out
of them regularly. They are merely for backup purposes, not to
portably run desktops (although I guess you could do that if you
really needed to, but a laptop would get you MUCH better life, in
hours). That being said, some UPSs have extremely long battery backup
run times..it's all about how much you're willing to spend.

Hello,
Actually, I have put my Mac mini on an UPC and ran it for quite a
long time without the UPC being connected to a power source.

Right, I forgot that part. Either way, Apple sells no external
battery pack specifically for the Mac mini...unless this is some
hidden special hardware offer that nobody knows about...the previous
emails about said supposed external battery implied that this
wasn't a
UPS..

Hello,
I was just responding to the comment that Apple sells a external

The mac mini doesn't have space for a battery...maybe you're
confusing
it with a laptop. The only way to get battery backup is by
uninterruptible power supply (a UPS).

Hello,
You are saying that Apple will sell an external battery for
the Mac
mini? Wow, I might check into that. What kind of charger does it
need?
Now that I said that, I'm going to contact Apple right now.

Apple will sell you an external battery you can use. Though
you'll
likely be better off buying two of them so one is charging while
the other is in use. That's an extra accessory.
