I had a chance to check out a Goldenmate UPS unit that was sent over for testing. This battery is marketed as a 10-year UPS! That is pretty incredible compared to most of the standard UPS units you can buy today that need a battery replacement every 3-4 years. Could this be a forever UPS battery that never needs replacing? Check out the video and see my thoughts on this possibility for the home lab and home office.
