You left off the model number I quoted:
- APC Personal Powercell 170W

I couldn't find a description of it, but based on the "Personal" "170W", 
I think it's similar to what I had. I got it 50% off the ~$100 
"original" price from Staples. The best price I could find for a 
replacement battery was about $40, but I had to buy two batteries, else 
pay more per unit.
