Shop lithium UPS systems for servers, network closets, edge IT, medical devices, security systems, point-of-sale equipment, kiosks, AV racks and industrial controls. This collection focuses on lithium-ion and LiFePO4 UPS models from APC, Eaton, Tripp Lite, Vertiv, CyberPower, Xtreme Power Conversion and other stocked lines.
Lithium UPS systems are often selected when battery service life, lower maintenance, lighter installation weight, faster recharge and high-temperature performance matter more than the lowest upfront cost. They are a strong fit for distributed sites where replacing lead-acid batteries every few years is disruptive or expensive.
Use this collection to source lithium battery backup for network switches, routers, servers, storage, POS terminals, security/NVR systems, medical carts, digital signage, telecom equipment, industrial panels and edge computing enclosures.
Available product families include APC Smart-UPS Ultra and Smart-UPS lithium models, Eaton and Tripp Lite SmartPro LiFePO4 rackmount UPS systems, Vertiv Liebert PSI5 and GXT5 Lithium-Ion UPS systems, CyberPower Smart App Sinewave Lithium UPS models, and Xtreme Power Conversion J60/J90 lithium UPS platforms.
Need help matching VA/watt rating, input voltage, runtime, rack height, network management, outlet type or replacement battery options? Contact UPSPLUSBATTERY and we will recommend a request-a-quote lithium UPS configuration for your site.
A lithium-ion UPS does the same job as a sealed-lead-acid unit, with a battery chemistry that lasts longer, weighs less and tolerates heat better. For racks that are hard to open, closets with no cooling and sites that cannot schedule battery swaps every few years, lithium changes the maintenance math: you replace the UPS closer to the end of the electronics' life than the battery's.
This collection gathers the lithium models we carry in Canada: APC Smart-UPS Lithium-Ion and Smart-UPS C Lithium-Ion, Eaton 9PX lithium-ion, Xtreme Power Conversion J60i, J90 Li and modular lithium frames, and APC Smart-UPS Modular Ultra, from 350 VA plug-in units to 15 kVA rack systems.

Runtimes are manufacturer full-load figures with the internal battery shown. Modular Ultra frames add battery modules for longer autonomy.
Match the plug and voltage. Most units here are 120 V with a standard or locking NEMA plug. The J60i line is 230 V for equipment built to that standard, and the 9PX6K-L takes a 240 V L6-30P. Check the receptacle before the datasheet.
Pick the topology you need. Eaton 9PX lithium models and Smart-UPS Modular Ultra are online double-conversion. The Smart-UPS C and Smart-UPS Lithium-Ion line-interactive models trim sags and surges and switch to battery on outages, which suits edge closets and lighter loads.
Count your rack units. Lithium packs denser: 1U and 2U models here cover up to 3000 VA, where lead-acid usually needs 2U to 3U for the same rating. In a full rack that difference buys you a switch or a patch panel.
Plan for the long life, not the swap. The reason to pay the lithium premium is service life: these batteries outlast lead-acid replacements by years, not months. Mount the UPS somewhere you will not need to reopen every three years and let the chemistry work.
Runtime still comes from watts. Lithium changes the calendar, not the physics: minutes at full load, longer at partial load. Size by the load list, and use the modular frames when you need more time.
Stock models ship as configured. For multi-unit rollouts, 208/240 V wiring or runtime targets above the internal battery, request a quote with your load in watts and we will confirm the model. Ships from Canada.

Is a lithium UPS safer in a small closet?
The models listed ship with managed lithium packs: a battery management system watches cell voltage and temperature. They still need the ventilation clearances listed in the manual, like any UPS.
Do lithium batteries last longer than lead acid?
Yes. In standby use a managed lithium pack generally outlasts a lead-acid battery by years, which is the main reason to choose it.
Can I put lead-acid runtime modules on a lithium UPS?
No. Match the battery chemistry to the frame; lithium frames take lithium modules.
What about recycling at end of life?
Lithium packs must go to a battery recycler, not the trash. Ask us about take-back when you replace one.
Which model for a network closet?
A 500 VA to 1500 VA line-interactive lithium unit covers a switch stack, a router and a modem, and its battery outlives the gear.
