Re: [CDV] No More Free Batteries

And I would cut the speaker out of it that continuously beeps when power is interrupted.

         
Or perhaps use a UPS that allows muting the "on battery power" audible alarm?

I agree. I own 2 different models of APC UPS units and both have a button on the front that you hit to display the various stats and say "hold to mute" I've not heard a single alarm in years if I didn't wish to. The fact the lights and AC are off in my room are all the alarm I need usually.

You can permanently disable the alarms through APC's management software too.
