The "Yuasa (Enersys) Genesis NP7-12T - 12 Volt/7 Amp Hour Sealed Lead Acid Battery with 0.250 Fast-on Connector" is a nice, high quality battery. I got two of these batteries to replace the OEM battery pack in an APC Smart-UPS 700Net. After installation, I powered up the UPS and all worked well with the battery power level reading fully charged from the start. Batteries were supplied with plastic terminal covers (see photo). For two batteries, it was $39.97 delivered and a good price. All points being the same, I recommend this product.

Batteries were very well packed (see photo) and promptly shipped by Portable Power Systems, PPS.

My original battery in my APC powercell lasted 12 years (hard to believe). The replacement had the same quality workmanship as the original. The total time to replace the battery was 10 minutes. Perfect fit. No complaints so far.

Update 12/19/2010
Battery still working Great.

Update 10/10/2011:

No complaints, Battery is going strong.

Works fine as a replacement for my Verizon digital phone line backup power.

It's important not to throw an old (or new) lead-acid battery in the trash. The toxic lead can be recycled. Home Depot accepts this kind of battery. You can find other locations by searching here: [...]

Yuasu was the brand of battery that lasted 9 years in my home alarm system. I found out that it can also be used to replace APC's RBC2 replacement cartridges. The APC brand had a bad batch? which lasted only 1.5 to 2 years vs the original 4 to 5 years. I am replacing my APC replacement cartridges with the Yuasu as they give out. I guess I am saying that I am willing to pay more for a quality battery which lasts longer. However I won't know how well this battery will last. Just my experience with the one that lasted 9 years (albeit in a low backup use).

When I received the Yuasa Battery I found that I had ordered it with the wrong size connector. I called the company that had shipped it and asked what I could do to either make this battery work or return it for the right size. They were extremely nice and told me that they would mail me two clips to convert the connectors so that I could use the battery I had. The connectors arrived several days later and the battery is working fine. It was a pleasure doing business with you and them.

I have used many different brands of this battery in UPS and othe power supplies and this one lasts the longest by a year or more.

This replaced the original battery in my gate opener. Product and shipper recommended. On time, well packed. no problems after several months of use.

Nothing fancy here. They do exactly what they are meant to do!

The NP7-12T - 12 Volt/7 Amp Hour batteries are almost a perfect match to my Yuasa NP7-12 Alarm Backup Batteries that died after 10 years. Apparently Yuasa is now Enersys. Batteries are the same size and weight and fit right into the alarm box.

My only mistake was that I did not verify that the connectors matched my old batteries. Duh! As advertised these have .25 fast on (1/4 inch quick connect) connectors. My alarm had 3/16 inch. There was an easy fix for my mistake with a wire cutter and 3/16 female crimp on quick connector. Literally 5 minutes to change the connector on my alarm wires and all was well.

I received the batteries from J. Mac Supply in 2 days.

Five Stars - Just make sure that the .25 connector is correct for your application.

I have no complaints. The battery was shipped fairly quickly. The trouble light on my home alarm system went out immediately after replacing my old battery. It seems to be working fine ever since. The price was very good.

I live in an area where power outages are frequent. I bought this battery to replace a dead one in an one of my (I have 5) Uninteruptible Power Supplies (UPS), and, so far, it has worked perfectly. I am using it on one of my desktop computers and the UPS supplies power for the computer, it's monitor, a printer, and several other small devices. The last outage, I was not able to get to any of the machines to shut them down for about 10 minutes after the outage started, and all were running properly.

It is an outstanding battery.
