This is under warranty. I've emailed to ask about how we handle it under warranty.
We could also do out of warranty if it requires less remote hands work, but I'd like to see what the process is.
I am tempted to get a new battery. eg: https://www.lambda-tek.com/HP-P01366-B21~sh/B42127388 Why? Because these are batteries and they have a limited lifespan. The P01366-B21 an updated model of the original battery which was installed in the server, unsure exactly why HPE updated it, but may be due to faults with the original battery.

Just curious, does HP have capacitor based "batteries" model? I know Supermicro switched from standard batteries to capacitors for raid card BBU, at least in machines we built in recent years.
@hbogner The HP G6/G7 range HP had a capacitor based "battery" option (which was my preferred option), but it unfortunately they only have the battery based option on later models.
Battery has arrived. Date of Manufactor: 2020/01. Delivered in an insanely oversized box.
Battery was used for server in Dublin during site visit, a replacement needs to be purchased.
Replacement batteries ordered. Related ticket: https://github.com/openstreetmap/operations/issues/553
Battery replaced... But still complaining. We reboot shortly to confirm status.
Battery install is still pending. I didn't have enough on last visit. I have stock to take on next visit.
