You'll are using original batteriesThe original battery is unable to give backup. Replacement battery is out of stock everywhere since 6 months. Sent an email to APC but got no solution. Has anyone else faced the same issue with APC for replacement battery?

yup, i edited to reflect that i misread his UPS model, G version use 9ah instead of 7ah.I can confirm that this UPS indeed uses 2 sealed lead acids wired in series and duct taped.
IIRC, the batteries are 9AH and not 7AH but in either case, plenty of options available locally for very reasonable prices
Thanks. I had no idea that there are local options as a perfect replacement in terms of size and performance. Glad that I asked.looks like you have lots of disposable income

yogis site ?How reliable is that site for ordering
which option you went ?Thanks. I had no idea that there are local options as a perfect replacement in terms of size and performance. Glad that I asked.
I ended up replacing with APC labelled battery from local vendor for 4500 in Noida. Had purchased the battery extension pack also previously. So to match it went for APC batteries.Will probably try cheaper batteries next time or replacement will get really expensive for both UPS and battery extension combined.which option you went ?
So my bigger ups ( APC pro 1000) battery dying, and to my surprise it uses 12v 9ah battery.
Not able to get this spec locally so called APC they said no battery available but can give me replacement from individual battery, mean 2 random battery from market, they will come and fit. and quoted 7k+gst.
I politely ask them them to f-off.
Was thinking to get 12v 7mh battery, my local guy said 9mh or 7hm both are same size.. only issue is i wont be able to draw more current & backup will be 25% less.
sure. i will keep posted.Update us if you find a good option.
