Sequel, Re: PowerWare

After the first vendor couldn't provide a PowerWare 5125-2200 in the time-frame we needed, we cancelled that order and went to another vendor. The unit, designated "#4" (since it's the company's 4th UPS), along with the relay-contact interface card, arrived Monday, and I installed it about 24 hours ago.
About half an hour ago, I gave it the acid test: yanking the plug while it was under the maximum load (fluctuating between 3 and all 4 candles on the load indicator). Everything stayed up, and the box plugged into the monitoring card registered both the beginning and end of my 3-minute artificial power failure.
I've got the side-panels off the battery compartment of #2, and GOOD LORD, THAT FRONT BATTERY IS SWOLLEN!! I've never seen one that bad, still in the unit! It's going to take more than one big honking screwdrivers to get that sucker out, and drop it off for recycling.
