Iam using a small APC BE600 12V/7A battery which Iam using now with a 9A battery, but the power on push button is a micro switch, not a reliable part, as it loose after afew months.
In your experience what is the best No-Break do you would suggest??
Thanks

Why would you have to power on/off a UPS? That's certainly NOT how you'd want to shut down a computer connected to one.

My thought too.  I've bought/managed many UPSs and I haven't used a power switch on one more than a dozen times.

Once one press the power on button the unit is working and the battery too, they had a limited MTBF life, not to mention surges and low tension.
When I power off the PC I also power off the no-break, I dont want let it on for safety, save the battery and electricity bill;
It is this unit pictured below, the unreliable button is the round at far left :
