    • Test failed February 21 2021
    • fall 2019---Purchased mid-June, paying extra for OEM battery but now already fails self-test and should already require replacement
    • It still fails the self test even though it has 100% charge available.
    • This time this replacement failed self test from the start
    • Recently my APC unit failed a battery test after 1.5 years of service on a replacement battery
    • I couldn't figure out how to disable the automatic self-test the software initiates and I wasn't quite ready to just remove the software
    • My old APC UPS was failing self-tests, and the panel on the front indicated I needed a new battery.
    • Original battery in my APC XS-1500G was failing the self test every couple of weeks
    • Fails self tests
    • Now however just 3 months later (5 days after 'product support window' closed too!), its failing the self-test and claiming the battery is bad and needs replacing
    • Place a fully charged battery in the UPS and turn it ON and after it passes the "Power ON Test" Hot Swap the partially charged battery back into the UPS to complete the recharging while the UPS operates normally
    • Original battery lasted 10 years before it failed a test.
