"They all suck!" Re: UPS failure modes

for most sites I've seen, the 19" rack is too small
  for the monster array. they tend to use 23" racks
  and place the batts at the bottom - generally 3-6 hour
  runtime.

Yeah. A lot of the remote hardened equipment runs off small battery arrays as well. During major power outages, look for the poor sucker stuck with driving the circuit to keep them all charged.
