I've had two of these running in the NOC for about two years. TRIPP LITE SMART3000RMXL2U. Just using the internal batteries. They have a blue (48v) external connector too. Not even on-line/dual-conversion. The AVR seems to handle our crappy utility power just fine. Sensitivity set to medium for our generator also works fine. I think we got them on promo w/ management card from Provantage for like $900 at the time. Can't say there's anything I really hate about them, other than one management card came with the newer firmware that has the stupid java web GUI and all of the SNMP data of interest returns *1000 (40% load shows 400, etc), just an annoyance though. I can probably downgrade that one, but that's like # 176 on my list of shit.

​The drawback is no snmp monitoring, but that could be overcome. You add the battery combination to suit your environment 12vdc bank.

    I don't know about other's experience but tripplite seems to make
    a better product across the board.

        Yeah. At scale it is necessary to be able to buy the same
        model (or very close) for consistent deployment and
        maintenance. Same battery trays, same batteries, same
        management interface. That is why I'm specifically only
        looking at Tripplite and APC.

        After doing some more research it appears there are at least a
        half dozen reputable vendors. As more enterprise type
        customers move their server stuff to the cloud (err, butt?) a
        lot of used UPS end up going to electronics recycling places.

            Of course i am not a dealer but i have an unused 2U Eaton.
            I think it is 1500 but i would have to check. Sounds like
            you need more than one.

                    Or it's had a battery swell and leak all over insides.
