The main important part of the UPS is the switching time. It has to be super fast to switch to the battery power right when the power cuts out.

I confirmed I do have the old UPS. Should I just open it up and unhook the wires?

Look up the manufacturer / part number and check the manufacturer's website, they should have replacement batteries for sale there. If it's a common manufacturer Amazon or Newegg probably has a decent price. Or you could check a local battery supply shop, tell them what kind of UPS you have and they may have the replacement battery for it on hand. It's much cheaper than buying a whole new UPS if it's just a dead battery (and after a few years it frequently is, in my experience).

Less than an hour on the timer and Adlain hasn't yet played. Shall we pause briefly for him, given that he usually plays 1-2 hours from this time most days?
