Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Super easy to install. Only unknown is longevity of new battery. Keep all the original packing material and go to apc website to get your ups label.

This is longer than any other brand of batteries. Their quality is far superior to the others and worth the minor marge more in cost.

The battery pack was delivered on time and in good condition. Came as pictured. Quick shipment. Free overnight shipping.

Cons

The ad reads apc rbc7 replacement battery cartridge no 7 that it is an apc battery, in fact says not to accept any substitutes (see below) the seller says it's amazon who has mislisted the item and have asked amazon to correct it.

The icing on the cake is their software--laughably awful. Doesn't inspire confidence in the product. If the batter melts, the battery with the excessups label melts.

I'm done with apc, frankly. That means the battery lasted 2 1/2 years. What's a dumb decision? Not any longer.

Highlights

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Quality

Their quality is far superior to the others and worth the minor marge more in cost.

Perfect replacement match and apc quality at a reasonable price.

Buy quality batteries and you will get long life from your ups.

Just follow the instructions with the new battery and look up the location on the internet.

Price

The apc price is only a value if the batteries last 6 years imo.

Price was better than on apc website at time of purchase.

Shipping

Order this one through my personal account for about the same price with free overnight shipping.

They work as they should and getting them is fast and easy.

The battery is great, but fast shipping was unexcelled.

Packaging/appearance

Arrived in original apc packaging, batteries were oem and worked like a charm

Was able to replace the old battery with new, without downing the equipment.

Competitiveness

2ah or 7ah batteries are made in vietnam as well and are very good quality and can be shipped to my address.

This went right in to a customer’s apc smartups 1500 battery backup and worked great.

At least not for the decades i've used apc products.
