UPS Battery Replacement in CyberPower 1350AVR

This got in the way of part 2 of prior post.  It had to be done.  For a few days, I was able to still continue using the UPS even tho the battery capacity was not showing on the front panel.


I guess it's a feature to not allow power to go through to the devices plugged in on the power strip that is for battery backup when there is no battery capacity.  I was able to continue like that for a few days until the replacements arrived.

This unit has no easy access door.  The front panel has to be removed but it is only one screw to remove.  The panel is connected by a plug that they do suggest be removed, but I didn't.

The unit with the batteries is 23lbs.  It takes a battery pack of 2 that are secured with a spacer and taped around it to hold it all together.

The tape on the pack I received was not stuck very well on one side so I pulled that part off, pushed the pack together and put the tape back on tight so it would all fit inside the case.

It's been plugged in all day and the display shows full battery capacity.

I haven't tested it yet by running it on battery only, I need to find if there is an alarm disable option.

  1. Alarm Disable is the main button, but you push and hold it down until the mute symbol lights up
