Interstate Batteries 12V 7Ah Fire & Security Battery (F1 Terminal) SLA AGM VRLA Power Patrol Rechargeable Replacement for Fire Alarms, Security Systems, General (FAS1075)

This worked well as a battery replacement in my APC Battery Backup 1500. They got a bit scuffed in shipping, but that was because the shipping carrier had beaten up the box pretty bad. Over all, quite pleased.

These batteries were used as a replacement for a CYBER POWER UPS system, model CST135XLU (initially purchased at Costco). After a few years, the batteries do wear out after some occasional switching. On the cyberpower website, a pair of new ones is about a hundred dollars (the cost of a new unit), while these were much less. I chose the brand INTERSTATE, as I have had a positive experience with that brand in car batteries, also purchased at Costco. Batteries swapped out, and did a load test with satisfactory results. The plugs on the battery are a slightly narrower than the ones on the initial batteries, however, the plugs in the unit will fit on the new Interstate batteries snugly without issue. Also, these were shipped in a less than optimal way: two heavy batteries in a tiny padded priority mail envelope with a single layer of bubble wrap around each one. With how rough the packaging looked, I was sure they would have been damaged, however, no damage, with the exception of a few light scuffs which did not affect operation - I still don't think it would be a good idea to continue to ship these in this fashion.

received them within 48 hrs. Great price (about half of what I would pay locally). Already installed them. work fine.

I go through quite a few of these lead acid sealed batteries in our various burgler/fire alarms at our businesses and at home. We have to replace them fairly regularly, so I need to keep a supply on hand. I have not had to install any of these battery yet, but I do own quite a few Interstate Battery brand batteries in our vehicles, deep cycle type in our dump trailers and trolling boat and have never had any issues or problems with the Interstate Battery brand. As I said, I havent had the need to install any as of yet. It's nice to have 8 of them on hand and on standby. I do not know what the shelflife of these unused batteries are. I will update this review once I install one and will report back on shelflife and durability / longevity, but dont think it will be any problems with these.

The battery took quite a few days to arrive. It was delivered in great condition.

Deliver quickly. Fits perfectly!

My alarm system required a new battery. I contacted the alarm people and they said to buy this product. I did and received the product in one day. Super easy to install, and the performance is excellent.
