So my weeny UPS battery was causing the UPS to spit out error beeps meaning I won't have battery protection anymore, oh well.
Properly dispose battery and cut existing spade leads
I had lame wire crimps so I had to open the case to extend the wire leads. I also had the same color wire so I tagged the B+ lead with electrical tape.
Removed the annoying buzzer. I still need to game on even the power cuts out still.
Obtain large european car group 49 battery and install battery terminal leads. I bought it used for $40 and battery puts out a lot of CCA and has lots of RC for extended runtime when posting stuff at BITOG.
Crimp ring terminals to ends of wires and connect to battery...
BZZZZT!!!!
Realise you did not have adequate lighting and cross-connect the terminals. So much for trying to complete this project at night while tired from work.
Luckily the unit was fused so all I had to do was replace the fuses. Interestingly for something so simple the fuses were made in Japan. Perfect for a JDM car yo.
Then find out the fuses were soldered to the unit. Non-serviceable parts my cinnamon buns. I would've tossed this unit in the trash if I was not skillful.
A little detail goes a long way. Text all lines up like a book. Screw that caution warning I've been in near death situations and I'm not letting that scare me.
Strap em together and look how it's a ridiculously hideous mod. Also added a voltmeter for realtime voltage monitoring.
