Any good wall mountable battery backups out there for smaller system installs?

Some more details will help identify the product you'll need.

What make of system will this be used on?

How much "up-time" after power loss are you looking for?

Are you only looking for KSU/PBX up time, or are you needing other items too (switch/router, MOH, etc.)?

Many of the smaller tripplites, 350 or less, are wall mountable.

I just make a shelf and then you can use anything. Most units that hang on the wall won't be very large.

I believe all the small APC's are wall mountable. The 350 to the 750.

It's a real pain trying to get the APC units to wallmount. Even if you make a paper guide to drill in the screws into the backboard, it never lines up just right to the screw holes on the back of the APC units.

I'm with hbiss. Installing a small shelf is much easier. Just make sure you tie-wrap or velcro or whatever to make sure the UPS doesn't fall or get knocked off accidentally.

We use the APC 350 for small installs and they were wall mountable, but now the new 350's aren't. One of our guys got creative and mounts them with D-Rings on two corners, it actually fits perfect.

But I've found that the 350 battery doesn't last for but 10 minutes or so on a power outage, probably just start using the 750.

I agree with the shelf idea, but a shelf won't always fit.

I no longer use APC or Minuteman....went to a CH 700 wall mountable....uses a battery similar to an exit sign battery....can be found at any electrical dealer who has exit lights and Cutler Hammer products.

The internet/Wal*Mart/Home Depot shoppers can't compare pricing....

Do you have that many outages? I know L.A. has had those 'rolling blackouts' Do they still do that?
I know you get a few outages due to storms but those are short n few between.
Most systems have a small backup integrated that last for a short while and adding say an APC should keep you up for awhile so Im curious why you are looking for a BB past that.
I know this doesnt answer your question but asks a question but I am going to install some small systems in Aneheim in April & May so some feedback on outages there is appreciated as I havent considered that past an APC.
Thank You,
Kevin
