Default Uses for Old UPS units

"Too_Many_Tools" wrote in message

I am the "lucky" owner of a number of older UPSes.

So what can a person build out of these?

The batteries are for the most part dead but the remainder of the
components seem to be in good condition.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

A local college student has a successful business placing new batteries in
these units -- checking out and selling on eBay and to a large number of
local small companies.

I usually pickup the transformers from his junked units (fire, internal
damage).
This are usually good for 13.8 VDC linear power supplies in the 7 to 25 amp
range.
