Well you have have battery profile settings so you could just set it to never charge above 75% and it will last a long time.

Also UPSs need replaced like every 2 years and according to Jim Salter tend to catch fire if you don't?

    I guess I was lucky my UPS batteries lasted 10 years. The last year their charge capability dropped off fast, and one was starting to bulge. Not Lithium though, just LeadAcid, so more of a leak hazzard than fire hazzard
