    Wow! I got depressed when I was speccing out a UPS a few years ago because they all suck (use Lead Acid batteries) but there are many practical reasons that they don't use better tech.

    That wooden box looks like a major fire hazard if a component fails which will then set fire to the box and thus the batteries contained within.
