external batteries are only needed to extend runtime.
Adding external batteries will increase recharge time as

The illustration (see
UPS's External Battery Connector, where you will
insert the battery pack cable. Complete installation
instructions for your battery pack appear in the battery
pack's owner's manual. Make sure that cables are fully
inserted into their connectors. Small sparks may result
during battery connection; this is normal.
Do not connect or disconnect battery packs when the
UPS is running on battery power.
If you connect any external batteries, set the Battery

This will increase your UPS's charger output so the
additional batteries charge faster. Note: the switch to
the right of the Battery Charge Level Switch is inactive
and will not affect UPS operation regardless of its position.
CAUTION! DO NOT set the Battery Charge Level Switch to the
down position without an external battery connected. There is a
risk of damaging the UPS's internal battery system.
