Alan,
I have an APC Smart UPS 500 that probably needs a new battery; the
firewall/router was plugged into it and going bonkers one morning until I
switched it to a surge protector. You're welcome to the UPS; Northwest
Batteries on SE Belmont & 37th (I think) has replacement batteries.

Well, I've had this guy for years and it worked continuously until now.
Probably exceeded the expected battery life.
