Good price for an APC branded, 9Ah battery. They usually go as low as $35-40, but you may not be able to catch a sale when your old battery dies and you need a new one NOW.

That battery has a lower 7.2Ah capacity and smaller F1 terminals so technically not RBC17-compatible despite saying so (one reviewer used pliers to compensate for the loose connection). Mighty Max does have a 9Ah battery with F2 terminals for $23.55, curiously shipped and SOLD by Amazon [amazon.com] which may or may not be a good thing: for SLA battery with a limited storage/shelf life, some may prefer the seller ship fresh stock directly from their own warehouse (as with your 7.2Ah listing).

OP's listing is good when your friend needs a battery, since you don't want to be blamed for getting an off-brand if it doesn't work. For myself, I usually buy at least 2, and I can get (2) 9Ah for around $40 shipped from battery specialists like BatterySharks.com. Those popular CyberPower 1350VA/1500VA UPS towers each take two 7Ah/8Ah/9Ah F2 batteries (model RB1270/RB1280/RB1290) if you reuse the old wiring harness.

Also, I ensure that the UPSes that I buy can take the larger 7-9Ah battery size (as smaller sized batteries aren't much cheaper). Those used to be commonly $40 and under back in the Staples coupon days but for the last few years the cheaper models come with physically smaller 5.5-6Ah batteries.
no you cannot. Li-Ion chemistry aren't close enough to SLA, you'll either be too low or too high voltage. Charging profile are also very different. LiFePo on the other hand, can.
I've been buying 'generic' ones off EBay, and they run for ~5 years, which is in line with the lifespan I got out of the OE batteries that came with my APC UPSes.

Quote from Dr. J :
Or at the very least scrap. I have a few people I can call that will come take stuff off my hands that take all sorts of stuff in for scrap value. If you're paying for someone to take away an old battery you're doing it wrong.
You can easily give it to an auto parts store for free, usually even $5-10 per battery.
My UPS has 5 battery packs with 4 batteries each. I got $5 credit for each battery as a motorcycle battery which went pretty well towards some car parts.

Quote from hmt :
My UPS model is BN600G. This one says it's compatible with BN600 (but I dont see BN600G in the list). Does anyone know if they're the same? Cant find specs of either one so I dont know what is the diff between the 2. Cant return either so I want to make sure. TIA
I also have the BN600G. I just installed the RBC17. It fits perfectly. The only difference: the recommended battery, the RBC110 is 7AH. The RBC17 is 9AH.

Does anyone know if I can use this battery for model BN650m1? It says BN600 in the amazon listing but not sure if I can use this in a BN650.
