As a matter of interest wouldn't the UPS still work as a mains
battery filter getting
rid of spikes or if theres a few minutes of power left in the battery
coping with
minor sags in power?

I intend on using my old Belkin to protect some of my more valuable equipment
that is not a computer when the battery goes. It is a pain to
replace the battery
in my belkin; I had to bend the metal cage that held it to get it out.
