UPS 700 LS turned on with batt disconnected but not now

[Anonymous user]

700 LS originally had replace batt chirp and light. Took batt out and checked voltage - it was good. Used 700 LS w/o batt until it would not turn on any longer.
What can I do to get it working again?

Hi,

A few bits of info could help us further:
- What did you measure the batt voltage to be?
- What is the serial # on the unit

The battery has a typical life of 3-5 years so perhaps the battery is the issue. Do you happen to have another battery to try? This might help us isolate the issue to the battery or the unit itself.
