APC BE500U 12V 7.2AH Replacement UPS Battery - Mighty Max ML7-12

S.D.: The first time there was a short blip in the electricity the battery kicked in and immediately shut down. After that it will no longer charge and I can't use the battery backup side of the UPC any longer. You get what you pay for apparently.

Rickey D. Carter: Although product page states that its for an APC BE500U I discovered upon removing original battery that this one is not an exact match. The original had a rating of 8AH and this one is 7.2AH. Also the terminals on the original were wider so the wiring fit a little loose. Since everything fits so tight in the battery supply this shouldn't be a problem. Don't know the longevity but this battery fixed my unit and no longer beeping.

Thomas: This battery does what it says and is a capable replacement for the original battery in your ACP BE500U. Normally for a low priced UPS when the battery goes out you should consider just buying a whole new UPS but this battery is so reasonably priced it's a great way to extend the life of your UPS. I cannot comment on the longevity yet since I've only had it a month but so far so good.

Shawn D.: My old APC UPS unit began beeping non-stop. It's probably about 10 years old, and when I went to the APC website they (of course) recommended upgrading to a more modern unit. However, I really didn't want to spend that much money and buy a new UPS when all that was needed was a new battery. Moreover, I'm not putting anything super sensitive or super valuable on the UPS -- right now it's being used for cable modem/router, cable box, 8-year-old BlueRay/DVD player, a 10-year-old TV, a floor lamp. Granted, if the UPS fails all of that equipment could (in theory) be damaged. Given that everything is so old and the remote likelihood of the UPS failing (and the fact that insurance might cover damage), I opted to just get a replacement battery rather than buy a whole new UPS. It was super easy to replace -- is simply slides into place.

I tested the unit out by unplugging the UPS from the wall (simulating power failure) and found that the battery held a charge and kept my devices running. Admittedly I couldn't deal with the beeping noise, so after 5 minutes I plugged it back into the wall. However, 5 minutes is more than enough time to save a project on the...
