Thanks for all the good info.....
I will get a big pillow, get down on the floor, lie down under the table, and unplug the “too many times” tripped strip and plug in the new one....having dropped the cord down from the table top, first thing in the morning. Then try to get up. LOL!
All my power strips are on my desk top at work.
I’ve had a couple APC battery back ups, but not much luck with them. One kept going off with nary a flicker of anything else and the other just quit.

My guess would be that the seller sold to you a unit that had already been sitting on the shelf for a lengthy period of time and the battery was almost already dead.
