RBC7 Customer Reviews:
This battery was a perfect fit from the standpoint of how the case fit into the UPS housing, and a very nice and perfect tight fitting plug. Handy recessed areas in the case of the battery allow you to hold on to this heavy brute while you gingerly work it into the battery compartment. Make sure you get your connecting wiring in the right place before you slide the battery into the case. Once installed it and buttoned the case back up, I plugged up the unit and presto…the dependable APC UPS unit circuitry recognized the battery, and the green light was on…once again. Fast shipment and packed really well. No need to replace your UPS, just get a fresh battery!
