The RC7 replacement battery cartridge consists of two 12V 18Ah batteries. Designed for the heavier-duty style of uninterruptable power supplies. The batteries have the nut and bolt style of connector new bolts and nuts are supplied with this product. We do recommend that you either take a photograph or make a diagram of how the old battery pack is wired. Make a note of the positive and negative terminals and the color of the wires that are connecting the batteries. it's easy to make a mistake when working from memory. Serious damage may occur if the batteries were to be wired with reversed connections. Canadianbatteries.com's range of batteries is as good if mot better than the batteries that APC supplies. We only supply the batteries to save you money!. Why pay for new connectors when the old ones never wear out. Yes, it may take a couple of minutes longer to change out the batteries but it really is not rocket science. Even the least handy person out there should be capable of this retrofit. The standby life of these types of batteries is generally 3-5 years. We do recommend however that you try a test on them by disconnecting the power every year and making sure that they power the devices they are connected to for the required amount of time. If you are struggling with removing the batteries it may be worth searching youtube for instructions.
