Good Product but No Battery Replacement

on November 3, 2016

Posted by: bob5000

Bought this UPS to replace a malfunctioning one by a different manufacturer. Like the small size and ability to hang on wall. This will provide power to our gateway and one switch. I have purchased over 12 APC UPSes over the years, and have also used other manufacturers. Have always come back to APC.

Kicking this one star since this unit does not have a user replaceable battery and there is no mention of this on the Best Buy website, in the information from APC listed on the website, or on the box. It is not until you buy it and get it home and read the manual that you find this out. This is a new version and the older version has a user replaceable battery.

Generally, I have had to replace batteries every 3-4 years, so with this unit it is throw it out and buy another one. Usual battery replacement cost is $25, and a new unit is $50 so that is a bummer.

If this does not bother you, then it is a good product. I am considering returning it and buying something else.

I would recommend this to a friend!
