Correct, Shipment in the lower 48 can be done, but only by ground. AK, HI and I think P.R. need to be by air - cannot be done per Amazon.
APC's site shows a different size [L X W X D] and capacity [V-A-H] for each of the three batteries. I want to confirm as much of that as I can for myself.
It's becoming obvious that just throwing the UPS out and buying a new one would be the easiest course. But, I want to know if there are alternatives.
The China option may be viable. I have been making some eBay purchases from China and H.K. recently with good results.
Such purchases need a lot of caution to be taken when making them. I will look into that possibility.

Yes, I've found that some eBay sellers do ignore or are ignorant of many shipping regulations. But, It seems to be getting harder to find anyone that will ship to AK or HI. Although, I still can ferret out those that still will. I get a good cackle when a vendor changes to no AK or HI after I make a purchase.
