Although slightly shorter in height than original batteries, work like a charm. I have replaced the batteries in a 90's fold n go power scooter with these amazing little gems. Can and does still use its original charger, battery pack is now half the weight of what it used to be, and packs quite the punch. Installed very easily by swapping everything over to the new batteries, fully charged in very little time and scooter that had been sitting for years was back on the road. Read more
This small lithium battery has performed very well through six fishing outings supplying Power to my Humminbird Helix 5 fish finder. It holds the charge through 6 hours on the water. I highly recommend this light weight battery. Read more
Battery worked great at the start, we followed charging instructions but did not last more than a month. Now it won’t hold a charge. It’s a dead battery that got very little use out of it. However, customer service was great, warranty was honored and a new one was sent out. I will provide an update on the next battery to see if this one lasts longer. Read more
Excellent brand, using it in my Generator now. This is a Lithium Phos battery. Upgraded to this 10Ah from a 5 Ah original basic battery These are great for holding a charge (trickle charge to keep battery up) Only need to trickle charge every month for a few days. Read more
I’d recommend against usage for “legacy” UPS lead acid battery replacement, specifically the common case of quantity 4 or 2 battery systems. These usually are setup with the batteries in series (4x12v = 48v, 2x12v=24v). You are likely better off throwing the legacy lead acid battery UPS away, and buying a lifepo4 based UPS. Even the Lifepo4 portable batteries like the power 1000 have UPS capability. The ups devices that start with a lifepo4 energy source usually have passive and active cooling for the battery array, in addition to the inverter components. There are a few problems with using these in a legacy lead acid battery UPS: 1. The continuous output current is far lower than lead acid batteries. The typical Lifepo4 compatible battery option is rated at 10amp continuous. So, in a 4 battery series system, you’ll get at most about 135w continuous output per battery - so about 500watt max. You won’t get anything near the potential needed in common 1000w, 1500w, and 2000w ups. 2. The BMS present in the lifepo4 batteries generally needs at least exposed passive cooling, or even active cooling. These are enclosed package batteries, so cooling is limited at best. 3. With 4 12v lifepo4 batteries in series, you’d basically need another BMS to manage the 4 batteries, or the discharge and charge levels between batteries becomes imbalanced. 4. The charging circuit will not fully charge lifepo4 batteries, in most cases. Lead acid vs. lifepo4 have different max voltage levels. 5. The legacy ups doesn’t know the proper estimated runtime or charge level of lifepo4 batteries. This is a relatively minor issue compared to above. Technically, a 48v lifepo4 pack that fits most UPS battery compartments could be built to handle several of the issues above. As an experiment, I fully charged up 4 of these individually outside a UPS, then installed them in the ups. Verified the output of the pack was approx 55.8v. The charge/discharge circuit ”popped” with the telltale electronics burning smell, with smoke, when a 200w load AC power fail test was triggered. These batteries may be ok for some cases, like the single battery backup common to home alarm system panels. Read more
Just a few days into owning this battery, and so far, so good! It’s a perfect match for my UPS 550 (model B0019804U8—the same trusty unit I purchased years ago). Compatibility Check: The UPS recognizes and charges the battery without a hiccup. System Integration: The data cable accurately reads the battery's charge capacity—no issues there. Performance Under Load: The UPS does its thing like a champ, seamlessly drawing power from the battery without errors. Now, onto the one thing I can’t tell you yet: whether this 10Ah battery offers longer run times compared to the 7Ah OEM version. Honestly, I’ve never paid much attention to runtime—I just configure the system to keep my home server running until it gracefully shuts down. (It’s tucked away in a basement closet, doing its thing.) For comparison, I have another UPS 550 with a 6+ year-old OEM battery, but let’s be real—it’s way past its prime and totally untrustworthy for runtime comparisons. The Bottom Line: If you’re looking to save some cash on a battery replacement, this one is a solid option. It’s significantly cheaper than the APC-branded OEM battery and only slightly pricier than the absolute bargain options. That said, I’d think twice about going for the cheapest of the cheap—after all, this is a battery we’re talking about. You don’t want something leaking, exploding, or catching fire! Even if it’s not a “true” 10Ah battery (who really knows?), it’s doing a great job in my book so far. Read more
