Although the 550 ES is currently being sold, APC's web site, depending on its mood, says either no replacement battery is available or to use RBC-110. (Of coarse, they then claim RBC-110 does not exist!) CDW, who just sold us some more 550 ES units this week, claims there is no replacement battery. One more thing - a couple of years ago we bought some non-APC batteries, 17v, 8 Ah, and many in that shippment were dead on arrival.
