*shrug* All UPSes have hot-swappable. Mine beep while you disconnect the
batteries, pull out the sled, replace all 8, shove it back in, and
reconnect, and it shuts up.
For those that haven't done it, though, DO NOT BELIEVE WHAT ANYONE SAYS,
DO NOT USE *ANYTHING* BUT HR (high rate) batteries in a UPS (maybe in a
home one, but...). APC, for example, simply stays red, and insists that
you still need to change them. *Good* battery vendors know this.
