  Well, there is an old APC Smart-UPS 1250 I have that I'm *sure* I
can restore to working if I can just figure out how to get the
batteries out.  Sure, it's been sitting in a corner for four years
now, but I'll get around to it *real soon now*....  really... ;-)

  Heck, Drew: You're welcome to borrow it, so long as I get it back
eventually.  The electronics work, it just can't hold a load because
the batteries are too old.  But it powers up, generates heat and
light, and can even pass current.  Rack mount, maybe 5U, maybe 12
inches deep.
