I know, you have replaced batteries with non oem and they have swelled and caused you all kinds of headaches, but not this time. These are quality batteries at a fraction of the price of the APC ones. This is now the 4th time I've purchased this for my 2 UPs. never been an issue, no problems with swelling, battery life is great.

Amazon should remove the seller! Delivery was late, and battery is defective. Now we have to cover postage on a very heavy paperweight. We should not be charged to return something that was faulty out the box. Looking at other reviews, this is a pattern with this seller. They are probably reselling the same defective items. I will file a fraud claim with my credit card if not refunded immediately.

Update: After three years of continued service, the battery is still fully operational and still performing at manufacturing specs. This battery has saved my equipment several times from intermittent power outages, and allowed me the ability to go one year, straight, uptime on my one server that hosts. Having accomplished this goal of mine with the product, I’ll be buying more for future replacements if need be. Perfect Fit and immediate response from my APC smx3000rmlv2u. Wouldn’t keep power to all of my devices till I got a new battery after I bought the unit. Replaced the battery and it’s brand new again. I have even tested it, at around 750VA I can sustain that load for 30-35 minutes, just like manufacturer spec. Very pleased with how easy it was to replace as well.

This non-OEM battery fit perfectly in an APC smx3000rmhv2u, and worked well. However, the UPS declared it needing to be replaced after 20 months. (Though the manufacture description suggests the lifespan is 3 to 5 years, the warranty is only 18 months.)

Bought one 3 years ago. Replaced with another from the same Amazon listing. This one never worked. Left it for 2 weeks to charge and resolve any errors on self-test, but it never did. Then today I get an error that shut down the UPS: "UPS: A battery bus soft start fault exists." I unplugged the battery and am ordering a new one from another seller. My guess is it's from the same stock as 3 years ago, or is recycled, or used. Bad juju.

All of four top mantel covers do not align with APC unit. it stuck. The insertion of all four made it very difficulty. To customize and bent down the mantel cover to make it work. bad design and QC.

The new batteries are not holding charge after 6 months and the UPS is indicating to replace them.
