APC RBC17 UPS Replacement Battery Cartridge for APC - BE700G, BK650EI and select others

Just bought another one of these, the last one ran for seven and a half years, the UPS being on for all of that time. Very easy to install. Rather expensive as a lead battery, when you consider that it's basically a motorcycle battery, but a reliable replacement that has never swollen or leaked. This is the second replacement I've bought and would but it again for my ever-reliable APC Back-UPS CS 650.

We get periodic power outages and the APC BE700G 700VA backup system is vital to keep the wifi router powered - so far is has been tested out to 18hrs. The original APC battery fitted in the UPS lasted 4.5 years, well past its warranty. There were a few cheaper alternatives available but given the performance of the original battery and criticality of the system I went for the OEM version. It arrived within 24hrs, fitted in a few minutes and has been working great for 3 months including 2 or 3 power outages of up to 8hrs.

The original APC UPS battery has been in service for 10 years with no issues. Although more expensive then the 3rd party replacements I went for the original APC replacement. I was pleasantly suppressed that this was a 12V Amp battery, which was a larger capacity then the 3RD party replacements. Inhalation was quick and easy and I look forward to another 10 years of continued service

Basic amplifier that does my job of piping audio output from computers to good large vintage speakers. Remote control is a bit fiddly but works well. Radio is only FM - but I could not find any basic receivers that had DAB/DAB+. Disappointing that it does not have a 3.5mm headphone output, as 2 x 1/4 inch microphone inputs seems generous. Main warning point is that the supplied mains cable is short (0.9m) and sub-standard with a very small and unfused plug. Is this even legal in UK? Supplied cable went straight in the bin and I used a proper C8 to UK BS1363 that I already had. (This would probably have been £3-£5 if I had had to buy it.)

Could not have been easier to replace the old battery, just slip the bottom up, pull the plugs off, and pop the new ones on. Should have my UPS set for the next 5 years or so.

The battery ran out after five years faithful service in my UPS so needed a replacement. I'd say this is a bit expensive, over half the price of the complete UPS when I bought it, but what choice do you have? Anyway, it took seconds to fit and now my UPS is back protecting my NAS and other bits that don't like power cuts.

I purchased a pair of these for my ageing Belkin UPS (a model which is apparently impossible to maintain once the batteries die). While the upgrade is not completely straight forward, if you're comfortable working with dangerous voltages and take the appropriate precautions then these batteries can save you a fortune. *WARNING* - If you're at all unsure about performing the work, take it to an experienced engineer.

The battery I received was old and would not hold charge. It was returned. I bought another replacement from a different supplier.

Dopo sei anni di duro lavoro il mio APC 650 ha cominciato a lamentarsi emettendo un suono intermittente per comunicarmi che dovevo cambiare la batteria e la luce rossa sul fronte del mio gruppo di continuità lo confermava. Mi sono subito attivata per sostituire la batterie facendo ricerche in Amazon. In cui si trovano anche batterie compatibili più economiche, sinceramente non me la sono sentita di acquistarle perché credo che sia meglio spendere un pochino di più piuttosto che rischiare di avere un prodotto non in linea con le aspettative. Vero il detto: Chi meno spende più spende, questo lo penso soprattutto per questo tipo di prodotti tecnologici ed essenziali per la salvaguardia dei nostri Pc. La batteria mi è arrivata in imballo originale con istruzioni, che sono state essenziali per me perché non sono particolarmente esperta su queste cose. La sostituzione è semplicissima, basta sfilare la precedente batteria e collegare la nuova. Appena ricollegata la luce del gruppo di continuità è tornata verde. Il cambio è stato molte semplice e veloce.Ormai l'ho installata da oltre un mese e fa il suo lavoro egregiamente preservando il mio computer da sbalzi ed interruzioni di tensione. Viene garantita dall'azienda per un anno dall'acquisto sia per la sostituzione che per la riparazione. Consiglio l'acquisto senza alcuna riserva il rapporto qualità/prezzo resta alto viste le prestazioni. Aggiornamento del 24/09/2023 la batteria sta avvertendo che deve essere cambiata E' durata ben 5 Anni con uso PC molto frequente!

utilisé pour un APC Back-UPS ES 700G en remplacement d'une ancienne batterie, j'ai déjà pu maintenir mes équipements sous tension suite à deux pannes électriques de 10 et 15 mn... vu la charge électrique des équipements branchés, supporter ce temps de panne, c'est bien, même très bien :)

Con 2 semana usándola y sin ningún problema todo excelente

Top Batterien haben super in das Gehäuse meiner Alten USV Gepasst sie Läuft wieder Einwandfrei. Nach knapp 4 Jahren waren die Alten Batterien am Ende. Ich kann APC Schneider nur Empfehlen. Und diesen Akku Satz.

Pricy but always fits the UPS space, connections always fit, and always works well. Have had several and all have lasted longer than expected.
