EnerSys (P/N: NP 18-12)



Exception: Batteries integral to and part of a COTS computing device or self-contained camera are also permitted (e.g. laptop batteries), provided they’re only used to power the COTS computing device and any peripheral COTS USB input devices connected to the COTS computing device and they must be securely fastened to the ROBOT.
I would guess that such a UPS is probably not "integral to and part of a COTS device", but that is just me
