FS: APC Battery Packs (NYC/NJ pickup)
« on: 29 May 2008, 03:48 pm »
I have two APC battery packs. Each one consists of 8 12V/7AH SLA's wired in series/parrallel for 54.4V output. The units have a built in auto charger that charges the batteries when 10% less than full charge and then switch off again.

I had been using them to power a pair of UcD 400 amps (two in series for -54/0/54 rails). They are *extremely* heavy and I don't have an appropriate box, so local pick up only. $200.

These could be used to power whole systems if well thought out, or TT's, source components, preamps, whatever.

edit; gordy is right, these are 7ah battery, which are standard.

P.S. I have a dozen or more extra 12V 7ah batteries, that I will include for free.

Willing to consider selling the APC battery packs.  They are a seriously good deal for those who like to run digital amps off battery packs.  Can even run tube preamps etc.

Just so it was clear, i was asking 200 for two, or 100 a piece.   obo.

Jim,

Here are some pics of the cases, though the innards have been modified to contain Hypex modules.  The chargers were moved outboard...  for reference, each case holds 8 - 7ah SLA's.

they take up about a 2u rack space.  size is moderate, weight is on the heavier side.  these are one of those things that i would rather not sell, but i am really on a kick about getting rid of stuff that i won't seriously get to for over a year.  if it isn't one of my top 5-10 projects, then it gots to go.  just not enough space for everything.

since each have 8 12v/7ah batteries, one could wire up a multipole switch, to switch from series/parrallel as wired for the charger to all in series for -54/0/54 to run a ucd400 off just one pack instead of putting two packs in series as i had them.  that might have been what gordy did.  i don't recall.
