This allows you to modify APC Back-UPS ES 400VA to use a little thicker (and more capacious) battery. The original battery is APCRBC106 (12V 6AH, size: 151x51x94 mm), and the battery to be used is slightly thicker: 151x65x94 mm (there are 7.5AH (APC RBC2) and 9AH (APC RBC17) batteries). I used Panasonic LC-R127R2PG battery, because it remained after replacement from bigger UPS (a pair of them were used there, until one of them died).
