After I slid the cover off the Belkin UPS, which I purchased in 2002, it looks like the battery pack should be 24V total or 28 V total. I'm thinking about hooking another battery to it, because getting a battery from a UPS manufacturer pretty much costs as much as another UPS!
I want to mod my Belkin UPS! The original battery appears to be bad. :(

What caps were in it? Just curious. -
Re: I want to mod my Belkin UPS! The original battery appears to be bad.
I haven't checked yet. I'm thinking about hooking a battery to it, likely the other parts of it are fine. Just seems to never hold a charge anymore.ASRock B550 PG Velocita

Re: I want to mod my Belkin UPS! The original battery appears to be bad.
I'm thinking about doing something like this:
http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?t=584475
It looks like the battery for the Belkin UPS I have will be 24 V or 36 V.
From Freezer7Pro, the one who posted this at ocforums.com:
" I found my old 1998 UPS a couple of days ago, and thought I'd see if it still worked. I plugged it in, and it wouldn't even start, so I downloaded a manual, and sure enough, there needs to be power in the battery for it to even boot."
-----------------------------------------------------------------
My Belkin UPS seems to do the same thing! It appears to be trying to power up with the battery, because I can see the battery LED glow weak. It's currently stuck like this, it won't click to AC power mode.Last edited by RJARRRPCGP; 12-13-2008, 10:06 PM.ASRock B550 PG Velocita

According to that web site, it's 12 V. Looked like it was 24 V or a little higher when I looked at printed stuff in the UPS. I saw something say "28V" after sliding off the cover.Last edited by RJARRRPCGP; 12-14-2008, 03:42 AM.ASRock B550 PG Velocita

Re: I want to mod my Belkin UPS! The original battery appears to be bad.
can you show us that battery?
can you measure it's voltage?
can you hook 2 12v batteries to make one 24v, etc.
also, can we see pcb of that ups?
(better to say can i see it, as i'm interested in belkin ups)
what i'm seeing in older apc units is a fuckin disaster to repair...
btw.
http://www.google.com/#hl=en&q=F6C80...le+Search&fp=1
check shopping results, ie
http://www.batterysupplyco.com/f6c800-unv1.html
however, i would still like to see the pcb(if you dismantled it that far, offcourse...of not, forget it....)Last edited by i4004; 12-14-2008, 07:34 AM.Comment

Re: I want to mod my Belkin UPS! The original battery appears to be bad.
That's the problem with Lead Acid batteries. They over time discharge themselves due to their own internal resistance.
As a result excess lead sulphate (a white substance a natural byproduct of the discharge process) forms on the plates which inhibits the batteries ability to charge. It can happen suddenly or be a slow death for the battery as it loses capacity.
Normally when you charge the battery (before it reaches less than a 25% charge) the lead sulphate is converted back into lead dioxide and spounge lead. So the discharge process can begin all over again. However if the battery is discharged too deeply (and too much of it gets on the plates) this chemical reaction can be extremely difficult or even impossible to reverse.
As for your mod that looks you won't want to use a ordinary car starting battery they are designed to give a quick burst of energy to drive a starter and not much else. They also don't like deep discharges.
A deep cycle battery would be more appropriate it will provide greater long term energy delivery. It will cost a bit more though.Last edited by Krankshaft; 12-15-2008, 06:00 AM.Elements of the past and the future combining to make something not quite as good as either.Comment

Re: I want to mod my Belkin UPS! The original battery appears to be bad.
Beware, some UPS units have the battery at mains potential.My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.Comment

by mkdjHello everyone,
Mark and model: ASUS X571
Symptoms: not turning on. There is only the LED battery indicator working. The owner of the laptop told me this problem arrived one week after having changed the battery. He then managed to power on the laptop only once, and then it never powered on again.
Tests already made:
- Battery is charging when laptop is plugged in. The LED battery indicator turns white after a couple of hours of charge, indicating that battery is fully charged. However, laptop won't turn on anyway, with or without AC plug.
- I have removed... -
The ISL88739 & ISL88739AHRZ are a highly versatile combo battery charger
configurable for operating as either a Hybrid Power Boost (HPB)
charger or a Narrow VDC (NVDC) charger, supporting 2-, 3-, or
4-cell batteries. Both configurations allow the battery to work with
the adapter together to supply the system load when it exceeds
the adapter capability, referred to as system Turbo mode. HPB
charger configuration reverse-boosts battery energy to the system
bus to help the adapter provide the system power in Turbo mode.
NVDC charger configuration...-

by huzoHi, so the old battery was getting error stated it's capacity is starting too get low and should be replaced, so the customer bought a new one and replaced it, but the new battery was also getting this notice that it's capacity is getting low and should be replaced, so i took the laptop for testing and the battery is charging at the terminal at 8.03V , the voltage of the battery is 7.7V, and drawing around 600mA when charger is put and the laptop is off...so that should be ok... but the bios system test doesn't recognize the battery and can't do the battery test and so is the hp battery manager,...

by dclass-proHi guys I have a DELL that does not charge.
I bought new original battery and charger and when it turns on the percentage of charge drops.
here is the link to the diagram:https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...oogle_vignette
I checked that on the +SDC_IN pin I have 19.8V
on ISL9538HRTZ
Pin 17 = 19V
Pin 18 = 5V
Pin 19 = 3.6V
Pin 21 = 3.1V
Pin 22 = 3.1V
Pin 24 = 3V

Highly Integrated Narrow VDC Battery Charger for Notebook Computers
The ISL6257HRZ ISL6257HRZ-T is a highly integrated battery charger controller
for Li-Ion/Li-Ion polymer batteries. ISL6257 is designed for
Narrow VDC applications where the system power source is
either the battery pack or the regulated output of the charger.
This makes the max voltage to the system equal to the max
battery voltage instead of the max adapter voltage. Operating
at lower system voltage can improve...-
