Yuasa NP7-12FR-NP7-12FR FLAME RETARDANT SLA BATTERY 12V 7AH -REPLACES UB1270 / P

Good batteries. Works as expected. Good lifespan for my needs. Using on a home stair chair (in garage so temperature summer/winter can affect life). Replaced after 3-4 years of use. Indoors 5-6 years

I have serviced and installed security systems for 15+yrs and you learn what works well and what doesn't. Many brands of 12v 7ah batteries for security systems have a short life span and often the business/homeowner won't know until its too late. Higher end systems automatically test the batteries for reliability. Quality of Brands: The Yuasa Brand has always been my favorite over the years. Customers that I supplied this brand to had their batteries outlast most of the other well known brands out there. Using the unknown brands was tried by our company for a time but the failure rate was too high and we'd go back to the Yuasa. The Yuasa Genesis is a different beast, which I also avoid. You can often tell a good battery by the weight of the lead-acid. If the battery was lighter than the Yuasa I'd know right off that the lead used inside was cheaper and usually this was proven by a quicker failure. Life Expectancy: These batteries should last about 4 years when used as a standby battery. My personal security system tests the battery every 24 hours and mine typically last near the 4yr mark depending on the number of power failure my area has experienced. Swollen Battery Problem? If you are using 12v 7ah batteries in a UPS and they have swelled, this means that the charging circuit of the UPS has baked the batteries (overcharged them). Unfortunately this is not the battery's problem but a problem of the charging circuit in the UPS. I use to find that my older APC UPS devices (all 8 of them) would cook/overcharge my batteries regardless of battery brand. My newer replacement UPS devices no longer do this as there is a better charging circuit in them. PROS: - HIgh quality lead used in the Yuasa Brand - Expected life about 4years when used in an alarm as a standby battery - Will outlast virtually every other brand CONS: - Can be pricey at times

DOES THE JOB.

This is the second battery of this type that I have purchased as a backup battery in my security system. It performs well during power outages. I do change out this battery every three years as part of my security maintenance plan. I have had no performance issue with this battery. I will continue to purchase this battery for my application.

Received these very quickly! Used to replace batteries ina stair lift. These batteries are VRLA -valve regulated, lead acid battery. The batteries that were in the stair lift were sealed! And mounted on their sides. The factory website says they can be installed any way EXCEPT upside down. They fit perfectly and worked perfectly. They had a good charge already on them so the chair lift could be used immediately.

I use this with a backup lighting system. The bulb is 11 watts and the battery can power it for about 7 hours, so it is indeed a 7 amp-hour battery. i have bought this same battery before from other sellers, and theirs were likely counterfeits, since the capacity of the battery was nowhere near 7 amp-hours, and they simply die and will not charge after only about 10 cycles. This one I bought from this seller is performing like this model number has for me over the last 25 yrs, when it is a genuine Yuasa battery, so I think this is a true Yuasa, which are great batteries. It will last a long time in my application. Thanks for selling a genuine Yuasa and not a counterfeit!!

Solid performance from a known good vendor of SLA batteries, able to provide power for longer periods of time than others.

Yuasa makes good batteries and this one has worked well in my small air compressor.
