APC does not manufature batteries, if the warranty has expired on ur UPS than u can put in any good quality battery which costs Rs.600

Yes, for almost all UPSs, such a standard 12V, 7AH or 7.5AH SMF battery will do which will cost > Rs.500/-. But I am not sure whether APC uses the same format, voltage and AH rating. Espeially since I happened to see APC Battery listed at Rs.2820 at computerwarehousepricelist.com.

The question still remains, whether the standard 7AH 12V battery suits APC?

Removing the Battery is Easy, Remove it, Take it to a Battery Shop, and ask for a "Replacement" or Something.. Pay for It, Come Home, Fix it to UPS, and Voila!

My thoughts exactly also buy from APC only IF the warranty of the UPS is still on but the warranty of the battery has expired (APC tends to give warranty like that...I know that coz I got 1 year warranty for battery but 2 years for the UPS I bought from APC last month). But if your warranty of the UPS has already expired than go in for any decent battery.

Hello,

I am a techie guy. Let me tell you the about the rating.

You can go for an Exide or any brand.

The ratings should be as
The terminal voltage should be 12V ---- this is strict.
Next the ---> what is AH. This determines your backup time. More the AH value, more is your backup time.

In AH the A denotes current in Ampere and H is the time in Hours.

For example 7 AH capacity means
Current @1 ampere can be drawn from the battery for 7 hours after full charge.
hence when the value increases, the backup time increases.

Also, Don't go for a batt with very low AH. The backup time will be too low and also the battery dies off easily.

Hence what you need to check is the terminal voltage 12V. You can go for any brand.
However, for UPSs you need a sealed lead battery.

Thank you.

12V 7AH is most easily available but 7.5AH is also common. (Exide, Amco etc.) 7.5AH will give a bit more back up.
