Good Solid Product
I replaced my battery cartridge after getting fault warnings from the APC software 3 1/2 years after acquiring the cartridge. This was the 1st replacement after initially acquiring my BE750G. The unit has performed well for me.

Works great
I am glad I noticed the failed battery light and was able to replace the battery before I really needed it. Shortly after I replaced the battery, we had a problem with the power line feeding our building, half of the 240 volt line failed leaving half of our building without power, including our phone system. The battery backup kept the phone system up for an extended period of time allowing me to make the changes necessary to get power to the phone system.

APC Replacement
Battery arrived on time. Did not realize they were refurbished. It looked like it had been beat up and dragged on the street, but seems to be working just fine. The icon at the bottom of the screen telling you how much time is left in the battery is gone - is there some way to install that software? I can't find the original disc.

APC replacement battery
When my APC backup unit started beeping it was time to replace the battery, since I didnt need a bigger unit, I ordered a new battery on line, selection was fast and processed in a very short time. Battery arrived within a week and install was simple and fast, new battery is great so far. Even was able to return old battery for rechycleing with the package prepaid. APC Rocks!

Installation was easy and the old batteries went to our local electronic waste collection center. Thanks for the prompt service.

Replacement Battery Cartridge #17
This product came quickly and seems to work fine. My complaint is that there were no proper instructions with information that I needed. I had to chat online (with a foreigner) and email my questions to find out why it wasn't working at first. Also, there were no recycle instructions provided. I found out about recycling by accident and had to ask.

Seems Well
Quick Note: My session timed out while writing my review and so I am now retyping everything... ...would have been nice had the page not lost everything (was literally on the last field, getting ready to hit submit) :(
Short version: Have used a couple of APC UPSs for the last 5/6 years straight with two 24-hr/day servers running off them - they've run for over 40,000 hours and have performed fantastically, I attribute a lot of that to the UPSs doing their job.
I weighed out getting a new UPS or just replacing the battery. Opted for the replacement and everything seems great so far. The replacement process was easy, though I should have taken more precaution when handling the batteries as I ended up with some acid on my fingers - nothing painful but I did have "rough" fingertips for 3-4 days after.
All in all, everything is "just working" so I'm happy.

Long time user - dependable products
Battery life exceeds my expectation, the replacement alarm is not adjustable, making timely replacement essential. Old battery is easily removed, the replacement battery goes in with a bit of difficulty due to length of wires, however, longer wires would have been a packaging problem - time to replace from initial power down of unit to power up was less than 5 minutes. No difficulty with UPS since replacement - looking forward to another couple of years dependable service.

I asked for a return shipping label for old battery. NONE came with the replacement. It took me awhile, to find someone at APC, to e-mail me a shipping label. Maybe, it was due to my UPS being 11 years old

Great Delivery time
I was very pleasantly surprised that my replacement battery was delivered to my door by courrier within 48 hr of my on-line order, which was placed on a weekend. This was the first time that I had ever tried replacing a battery instead to just buying a new UPS unit. None of the retailers selling APC products carry replacement batteries, and since I live in Canada, I expected that the cost of bringing in a replacement battery would exceed the cost of a new unit.. and be bogged down with customs duties.. etc. Battery was actually shipped from a nearby Canadian distributor. It is certainly more environmentally-friendly to replace a battery rather that throwing out a perfectly good UPS system. APC should do more to inform Canadian customers how easy it is (& cost -effective) to replace batteries. Perhaps include battery replacement information in packaging for new units.

I love my backup power supplies. I have them on most of my TV stuff like dvd-hdd recorders, satellite receivers and of course, my computers. When one reaches retirement I prefer to replace the battery rather than buy a new unit, It saves the environment and Money too. APC has a complete line of replacement batteries for their units at reasonable prices and they include return shipping for the old battery. Saves money and the environment! And it was shipped quickly to minimize my downtime.

Back UPS Battery replacement
The replacement arrived in very good time. Installing it went OK even though the instructions didn't quite match the BE750G-CN unit I'm using. Run time went from 9 minutes to 140 minutes. I had no trouble printing the return shipping label, but it would have been nice to have been given some indication as to what document(s) should have gone into the package with the old battery. I wouldn't have minded less expensive shipping, even at the cost of a longer shipping time.

Replacement Batteries
After power goes out and the Battery runs down the battery will not recharges using a generator. So they are useless when you need the protection like , say a hurricane and there is no power for days. Find a UPS that fulfills the requirements such as recharging from a alternate source.

APC Battery Replacement-Painless
My APC LS700 started beeping and I figured out quickly the Battery Cartridge needed replacement. Finding the replacement on the APC website was easy and purchasing it was 'Painless'. Knowing I was getting the exact replacement to power the LS700 was great- I've read reviews where people thought they'd save some pennies by buying a 'Compatible Battery' only to have headaches from it not working. It arrived within a week (honestly for the weight of the replacement at $15 shipping - they should have offered next day shipping). Installation was a breeze, anyone that needs a Replacement Battery Cartridge would be crazy to buy anywhere else but APC.com! They are number one in my books!

The replacement battery pack extends the life of my APC backup power supply for another 3-5 years at minimal cost. Much cheaper than buying a new unit and the battery was really easy to replace. Also, I could take my old battery to Staples for free recycling. No storing it in my garage and waiting for a hazardous waste recyle event. Well worth it.

I rarely think about my UPS. When I do it is because it needs to be replaced-which is seldom. I've had several replacements and originals and all perform beyond the prescribed life. It is easy to order and it arrrives very quickly. They say 7-10 days, but it usually arrives in a couple of days with normal delivery option. I recommend it to anyone that needs this service---everyone.

Solid product
Solid product and APC makes great UPS units. The only area for improvement to me is twofold; 1) Mark the outside of the battery with the model number (Ex: RBC15) so it's easy to match-up when ordering. 2) Make the sticker on the outside of the UPS unit larger or at least the font larger so that when you need to reference the model number and serial number, they're easy to read.

The batteries last many, many years and are very simple to replace thanks to the ease of ordering replacement batteries. They are simple to remove, install, and recycle. I would highly recommend APC products to anyone looking for a backup device that has longevity and is economical over it’s lifespan.

It's A Battery!
Works as advertised. Was a little tricky removing the power and ground wires from the original battery due to the short length of the wires. There is not much room to maneuver your hands/fingers.
Once the new battery was connected and installed, the UPS worked as expected. PowerChute recognized the battery was changed.
Cost was a little more than I expected to pay for just a battery (i.e., more than 1/2 the cost of a new unit). Also, shipping was higher than I expected (considering flat rate shipping available from USPS as well as the fact that they must get a steep discount from FedEx/UPS).
Finally, I did not appreciate that I had to pay UPS to pickup the old battery for recycling since this was a residential location even though I had a prepaid return label.

Easy to install
After a thunderstorm knocked out my power last month, I found my 6-year old UPS had given up the ghost. It took just minutes to find the proper replacement battery on the APC website, and it was delivered to my door in 3 days. Replacement took about 20 minutes, half of which was time checking the instructions to make sure I had everything right. It was harder to get to this review site than it was to actually perform the replacement!

The battery was easy to install and seems to work perfectly.
However, I was disappointed to learn that APC no longer includes a shipping label to return the old battery, and it is now up to the user to find a recycling facility. Besides being an inconvenience, it will likely also lead to much fewer batteries being recycled.

Long Life?
While I am very happy with the unit in general, the battery life is less than desired. They advertise a life of 3-5 years. I have had to replace the battery twice short of the 3 year mark. No real problem with outages, I just use it a home to protect the system.

Very easy replacement
I've been using APC battery back-ups for many years and I always just bought a new one because it was quicker. This time when my back-up started acting up I decided to purchase a replacement battery, just to see how the whole process worked. I ordered it on the APC site, they delivered it quickly and it was a snap to install. Quite an easy process.
For those who have said that APC should provide a means to recycle the batteries, they do. On their site you can print out a UPS label to send it to a recycling center, or they also have a deal with Staples to accept batteries.

Battery Replacement
Battery arrived quickly and was easy to install. The replacement solved my low-battery issues. The online recycle information needs to be updated. I tried returning it to Staples, as the www.apc.com/site/recycle/ indicated as Option 4, but was told Staples stopped taking APC batteries a year ago.

The replacement would not hold a charge. From the time I plugged it in the battery power just went down and would not charge. Thought it might be the unit so I put in a diffrent battery and the unit works fine. I didn't want to go through the effort to return it and had I not received the email requesting a review I probably wouldn't have done anything. I was just very disappointed and mad!

Battery size anomaly
I determined from this site that the correct battery replacement for my 4-year-old Back-UPS ES 750 (which was beeping frequently) is the RBC 17. The replacement is much smaller than the original battery, and will require shims so it does not move around in the case. There was no warning with the new battery. I decided to reinstal the original battery, and noted that the lugs were pretty loose, so after snugging them up, the old battery seems to be working fine now. I am in the Caribbean, so it is not easy to return and replace the battery. Just thought this may be helpful to another customer who runs into the same problem.

The battery runs perfectly in my LS-700. The instructions do not include the LS-700 model, but it is very similar to all the other APC systems and this was not a problem. Installation took about 2 minutes. A slightly longer pair of wires would be nice. The clips are very sturdy.

Good Battery, Poor Documentation
When the battery arrived, it came with installation instructions for several different model numbers, none of which matched my UPS. I had to discard the instructions and install the battery with some guess work.
Nowhere in the recycling instructions does it say how to return the spent battery to APC. I looked at the website but it was unnecessarily confusing and difficult to use. I had to call customer service and have them walk me through the procedure step by step.
The battery itself is working fine so far.

Low battery alarm still rings
The replacement battery arrived with clear instructions as to how to remove the old battery and install the new one. Installation was a breeze. The contacts were securely attached. Unfortunately, the low battery alarm still continues to regularly sound, which is a bit of a nuisance and brings into question whether the old battery really needed replacing in the first place..

Fix the Connectors
The life of my old battery was about 3.5 years, normal for this application. When I installed the new battery, I still heard the ear-shattering squeal. Turned out, the black connector came loose as I stuffed the battery back into the UPS. Normally these type connectors are somewhat tight; these are not.

I thought that I had an order that was including a return of the old battery. However, upon reading the info included in the product , I find that I should take it to staples and pay double digit amount to have them dispose of it . So currently it is sitting in my garage because I don't want to pay more money. Perhaps I was mistaken. Just be aware of this snag. The battery I received works great and was delivered promptly.

I think that the most difficult part was deciding if a replacement battery was as good as getting a new UPS. I found the UPS Selector to be difficult since I'm not too technical. So, it was replace. Also, less expensive! Only took 15 minutes to accomplish the switch.

Ordering process confusing. Delivery is good.
A battery replacement order for a previously purchased model. The order pathway took me into the TradeUp pathway and order wouldn't go through, never advising me that the battery alone could not be ordered in that pathway, though allowing the battery to be put into the cart. After figuring that out and placing the order, it was in review status for 6 days. I sent an e-mail and the order came out of review status but I received no notification of it being shipped.Once received, there was not mention of the process or an included label for returning the old battery, though such was indicated in the initial purchase product description. Emails to the company to inform of these matters resolved the issues but in general, my overall impression was a good product with below average service netting a middle rating of 3 or 5. I should note that in 10 years this is my 6th APC Home or home office purchase. So I do like the product. The selection is tremendous. I've just never had the current communication issues.

Perfect replacement to my APC UPS
My APC uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is almost ten years old, and the original battery has only now failed. I considered buying a new unit, but was so happy with the old one that I decided to just replace the battery. The battery arrived very safely packaged. It was very easy to slip the old one out and insert the new exact replacement. I was happily surprised to find that APC provided the ability to print a prepaid mailing label to send the old battery for recycling. The process was very simple. So, now I have a UPS that should last another 5 - 10 years, although APC says the batteries are good for 3-5 years.

Best Way To Keep Your UPS Powered
I have found that for continued reliability in an APC UPS, original OEM replacement batteries are a must. At my former employment we had a ton of APC uninterruptible power supplies in our radio and television studios. Although we replaced many of the batteries with cheaper, off the shelf generic batteries of the same physical and electrical characteristics, we found that battery life was much less. In my experience, it is better to use OEM batteries to insure continued long reliability.

But after I got it in and all of the power cords reconnected my UPS unit powered

2nd Replacement Battery & Working Great
This is my second replacement battery for my UPS. The original one lasted over 6 year and the one I replaced lasted 8 years! Very happy that APC continues to support "old products" that otherwise continue to perform just great.

Part failure
My APC unit is an old discontinued model BACK-UPS ES 725 purchased 2007. The oem battery failed about two months ago so I bought a replacement battery. Per instructions I kept the unit plugged in and powered off for 24 hours (6 hours more than the recommended 18) to fully charge the battery. Unfortunately the replacement battery did not charge, failing after about two days. I have to conclude that the unit is no longer operational except for providing surge protection.

A very pleasant shopping experience.
We needed to replace our APC Back-Ups 7
EC750 battery after it started beeping and we found out that that meant the battery was wearing out & needed replacement. We had had no trouble at all with it for at least 5 years, so we wanted to replace the battery with the same one from the same place.
We went online to APC and easily found the correct battery. Ordering it was easy and it arrived as scheduled. We replaced the battery easily and returned the old battery in the same package with shipping paid by APC. So we didn't have to figure out what to do with the old battery and the shipping was prepaid.
All in all, a very pleasant experience with APC. Will do business with them in the future when our Back-Ups EC 750 finally dies.

I bought a replacement battery for a unit, which lasted for many years, however the battery only lasted for A few weeks, maybe three, before the buzzer went off saying there is a problem with the battery. Am in the process of trying to reach customer service to talk to them about it. I do recommend replacement batteries over buying an entirely new unit.

Great replacement battery for my BE850m2
My old battery died after 2 years of usage. I wonder why soo early? The cause was evident... I had a faulty wire connection in my house, that problem damaged my battery in less time than the average lifetime. I decided to buy directly from APC, is better to buy the original battery thant those third party replacements. It came fast and works flawlessly!

Not much to really assess since I also have an older Backups Pro 1000 that is almost identical to the to the one being assessed. Basically, the only difference is the display unit on the front whereas the older unit has three icon symbols. The major problem with ALL APC UPS' is the total lack of monitoring software, especially for the Mac which no longer carries the one mentioned in the help sections. This has been the major sticking point ever since I purchased my fir APC UPS in 2003 then in 2006 and again in 2014 was was told "we are working on it" all three times. Never, at any time, did anyone mention the MAC software that could be used. This is particular notable by many MAC users who have their UPS' in a closet out of sight of the working area.
I noted recently that due to a restructuring of my homes electrical system, upgrade to 200A, with the majority of the system being outside because it is directly linked to my external A/C unit, that I noticed the ground fault light was on but because it is on the back of the unit had not been notice before because it was out of sight. This is another are where it is CRITICAL to have a good monitor software in operation.
The below concerns the rest of the questions;
I consider my SIX UPS' to be "Total System Power Management" such that some are in different parts of the house with one inaccessible when the room is closed for personal family use. This use includes: Cable Modem, WiFi/ethernet modem, five computers, four external HD's and power connections for iPad and Cell Phone.

Reliable, hassle free power backup
Replaced my 10+ years old battery inside my surge protector and power backup APC unit. It works great. Primarily helps keep my internet modem running during power outages. Just needed a fresh battery in it and I'm sure it'll keep running another 10 years. Reliable product that does its job. And I don't even have to think about it. Great product!

Disappointment with the unit, and support.
I have ordered replacement battery as that was indicated by the unit. Battery arrived, but unit is not working, still beeping and not providing any power (neither via power source or battery). So indicator status was misleading and unit is probably busted, which would be OK, but I have requested support 4 days ago and so far have no response / follow up. As I only have a limited window to return the item, this is what I am going to do. Then I will look at the unit from another company as this is my second mishap with APC

Reliable back-up
I've had an APC unit for around five years. It's come in handy a number of times.

Doesn't Leak
I used to buy replacement batteries for my APC UPS's from after-market suppliers. After I had several crack and leak acid, I have bought only APC brand since I have never had an APC batter leak.

The battery went out on my unit. Ordering a new one on the website was easy. The replacement battery was simple to install. My unit is up and running.

Replacement batter cheaper and just as good as new
The previous battery didn't have a charge and was expanding.
- got this replacement
- easy to replace/install in the chassis
- great service of sending the old battery back in the same package
Totally Awesome!

Reliable service
this is the second time I have purchased batteries for my APC UPS's. Always receive prompt service. I have two APC units that I have had for 15+ years. They keep my computers and components safe with surge protection as well. I'm a retired IT person. I consider these units invaluable. Would highly recommend them to anyone who wants or needs to keep computers, etc. up an running when there is a power outage, as well as keep your equipment safe from power surges.
