I don't use gmail. I won't.

But back to the subject: BatteriesPlus - the store near here does GSA...
but when I look for replacement RBC43, what I find is about the same price
as APC direct. Battery Sharks is *much* better, about a third that... but
I just called, and at least the saleswoman I spoke to doesn't know from
GSA.

Still looking.
