I am looking for a battery backup that has an easily replaceable battery. I'm running small form factor PCs off of the battery backup but I'm finding that after a few years the battery backup dies. My issue is that most aren't an easy swap out. You have to unscrew the housing and connections...

Sorry for the odd title. I've built a few machines over the last handful of years and it seems that capacitors are always the first thing to go on them (overclocked or not). Used Asus boards and both dated ones I've bought ended up with swollen caps and ended up dying. I game a lot on my rigs...
