Whether or not an extra year of warranty is "worth it" or not, simply consider how much fun you've been having with this the past 2 days or so... -- richard

It's looking like I'm going to have to replace it, tray and all, like APC intended. :-( Would you spend the extra money for the name-brand replacements (including the extra year of warranty) or go with the less expensive after-market solution that is supposed to be "compatible" with the RBC24 battery pack? -----Original Message----- From: Matthew B Ames [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, April 05, 2011 10:48 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: APC battery tray Is possible the batters have started to expand and are now jammed into the tray? Check the voltage across the batteries, if it 0vdc (or pretty close) then you need not really worry about them shorting out, imho. -----Original Message----- From: John Aldrich [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 05 April 2011 15:34 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: APC battery tray Any tips for getting the batteries out of the "tray" in an APC UPS? Our rackmount APC takes 4 batteries and they appear to be *glued* into the tray. The guy at Batteries Plus was shocked that he couldn't get 'em out with a screwdriver by prying on them. A friend on another list suggested soaking the bottom of the tray in Goo Gone, but I'm afraid that might short out the batteries or something even worse... Is that likely to be safe and does anyone have any clue what APC used to secure the batteries into the tray? ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin This email and any attachments to it may be confidential and are intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.
