I have a APC by Schneider Electric Back-UPS BX - BX1400UI UPS. I have read how to upgrade the battery which seems straight forward, just disconnect the current batteries, extend the battery wires to the external battery or batteries and away you go.
One caveat seems to be you need a UPS with twice the wattage you need because they aren't designed to run for prolonged periods, which is exactly what upgrading the battery does.
Can I upgrade the inverter? I assume that's the weak point here. Is it even maybe a case of just swapping out the transformer?
I seen a YT video on a DIY 4kw inverter, that I think is something I could be doing with.
