May i know if there is any cheap SLA battery to replace APC RBC#6 battery?
The ori battery no spec and it comes in two SLA connected in series so i assume each 12V? I just want to test the UPS if it is still working or not. The ori battery dah kaput. Thank you. |

1. Can ask for alarm/auto gate battery at electrical shop if online difficult. Its the same 12v, 7.0a battery for UPS and auto gate.
2. This is very important, when taking old battery out, take out red (positive) first before black. When installing, plug black (negative) first before red. Do either of this wrong, UPS can die. |

Great to hear that, and the battery even though has been used for 1 year, are much better quality and perform better than cheapo/clone APC RBC u can get directly from China etcreceived the batteries and working fine now. the seller is nice too, he recommends if know how to do parallel connection then can connect more batteries to extend the runtime. nope, should disconnect the fuse pin behind ups 1st. So confirm only battery spoilt not the UPS itself right This post has been edited by amirsubhi: May 6 2021, 08:47 PM |

Actually APC uses battery from CSB, like the one from https://shopee.com.my/CSB-12V-9-Ah-9Ah-Seal...5799.9137922202
These things last at least 3-5 years. |

I connected the Black (-) then Red (+), causes sparks! Thin connectors out of shape after that. Spent some times to put all back to the terminal. When - first then + ,there will be no sparks at all! * Screwed back the casing. Plugged power cable and switched On. Boom, APC functioned! * A while then, started beeping 4 times every 30sec with Green Indication Light. As googling result, this meant using battery power instead! Question : ∆ So, does it mean my IC board damaged (caused by the sparks)? If yes, APC Shouldn't be able to turn On, right? ∆ Does it mean FUSE Broken? Where is the Fuse place at? I seemed could not find it? ∆ I suppose power did not give battery charges ,which means it was bypassed the current, cause I already plugged in power from wall plug that all the while function well, but beeping sound keeps going as mentioned. ✓ I woul like to hear from you for further troubleshoot steps!
