APC UPS Battery Selection: Original vs Non-Original, Which is Better?

Question

Uninterruptable power source

The question is in the title.
The battery in the home UPS has died, an APC RBC17 is required for replacement.
The original costs 4-5k, the toad strangles the
non-original one, I see it on the Internet for 2.5k.
Than non-original will be worse (risks)?

Answer 1

If nothing has changed in recent years, then the "original APC" is CSB ( www.csb-battery.com ).

Answer 2

you can change it to any one suitable in terms of parameters, after replacing it, calibrate the battery with the proprietary PowerShut program, usually comes with a UPS.

Answer 3

Any 12V battery with a capacity of about 9Ah is suitable (less \ more, it's okay)
In our car market (in Kazan), analogues are selected within 700-1000 rubles. Works just like the original

Answer 4

Nothing will be worse, except for the lifetime for the cheapest analogues - they fail faster. Batteries BB Battery show themselves very well, they also have special long-lived series.
