hi guys,

i have a proview 500VA ups, working like a charm for the past 5 years(touchwood). But since a few days im not getting backup after power cut. Its beeping continously for about a minute and the PC is switching off.. I guess the battery is dying..

can i change the battery instead of getting a new UPS.! i'd like to know a few 'good' brands.!

thanks!

CSB, Panasonic and Indian EXIDE and Chloride.

can i know the costs?

and is there any specific batteres for 500 VA or 600 VA? i mean can i increase my backup with a high power battery?

Battery is 12Volts rated at 7AH with price range of Rs. 750-600.

Yes, you can increase the backup by putting bigger battery but it wont fit in your UPS case, else you can use it.

thanks for the replies.! got an exide battery with the same rating, for 600/-.!
