We see IT managers, office admins, building techs, and facilities teams run into this every week.

Checklist: Confirm these before you buy
Check This
How to Find It
Order Should Match
UPS Model
Back or bottom label (e.g. OMNISMART675PNP V1)
Matches product link Serial helps if available
Battery Cartridge Code/Pack Label
Inside battery compartment (may say RBC## or Tripp Lite PN)
Reference the code or send us a photo if unsure. If no code, count batteries inside.
Number of Batteries
Look inside pack—how many blocks?
Order the full set, not just one.
Example: OMNI = 1x12V, SU = 3–4x.
Voltage and Ah
Battery label: 12V 9Ah is typical
Voltage must match. Ah can sometimes go up if space fits (ask if unsure).
Connector Type
Check existing connector—usually reusable cables
Re-use your original cable/adapter.
No new cables in box; prevents mismatch.
If you’re not sure, take a photo of your label and old battery, and email it to info@upsplusbattery.com. We’ll review it for you, free.
What’s in the box?
Brand new, factory-fresh, valve-regulated, spill-proof SLA battery (or pack set for multi-block models)
Primary battery only—no cables or hardware included, so you’ll re-use your original wires and brackets
Instructions: Not included, but simple—and we support by phone if you need help
Ships in 1–2 business days from Montreal (trackable, no duties in Canada)
Local pickup available at 5 Goodfellow, Delson, QC
For more details (shipping expectations, warranty, recycling), see our shipping policy.
Installation reality check: What’s involved?
Is my Tripp Lite battery hot-swappable?
For small Tripp Lite OMNI, OMNISMART, and similar models, battery changes are not hot-swappable. You’ll need to shut down and unplug before changing the battery. Some rackmount (e.g., SU series) models allow hot-swap, but always double-check.
Time and tools
Tools: Only a Phillips screwdriver for most models
Time: Typical OMNI/OMNISMART = 10–15 minutes if you’re comfortable with basic electronics
If you can’t open the battery compartment without removing circuit boards, STOP—call us or a qualified tech
Safety: What NOT to do
Never work with the UPS plugged in. Always disconnect AC and loads first.
Don’t reverse polarity—always match red (+) and black (–) wires
Don’t mix old with new batteries in multi-pack systems
Never install a swollen, leaking, or damaged battery—recycle it
No metal tools on battery terminals
For high-voltage (3 kVA+ or complex setups): If you have a larger model, persistent alarms, burning smell, obvious swelling, or you’re in a datacenter/critical site—don’t DIY. Book a UPS tech via GDFTech.com for safe service.
Common wrong orders (let's help you avoid them)
Bought a 24V battery for a 12V unit—result: UPS won’t turn on or errors
Ordered only one battery for a pack, but the UPS uses two or more—replace the set, never just one
Ah rating or battery size too large—wouldn’t fit in battery bay
Connector type ignored—new battery didn’t connect, original cable needed
Mixed old and new batteries in a multi-battery tray—UPS failed testing or damaged pack quickly
We’ve seen sites send three return shipments in a row before calling us for confirmation. Let’s skip that—double-check before you buy, and let us verify if you have doubts.
Next step: Order confidently or get it checked
If you’ve matched your Tripp Lite model and confirmed voltage, Ah, and pack quantity, you’re ready to order. For example, if you use the OMNISMART675PNP V1, order your replacement here. We ship fast, track orders, and support pickups.
If you’re even slightly unsure, email a photo of the label or battery to info@upsplusbattery.com or call us at 438-881-3363. Our team at UPSPlusBattery specializes in troubleshooting and making sure your order is right—before you click buy.
FAQ: Fast answers for IT teams buying Tripp Lite UPS batteries
How long will a new Tripp Lite battery last?
Most sealed lead acid batteries run 3–5 years in typical use. High temps, frequent discharges, or overloading can shorten that.
What runtime should I expect after replacing?
For a 1500VA UPS with a fresh 12V 9Ah battery, expect 5–15 minutes at full rated load. Actual results depend on your actual connected devices.
What if the UPS keeps beeping after new battery?
Check battery connections and run the UPS’s self-test. If alarms persist, or you notice heat, smell, or load isn’t carrying, book a service technician—something else is likely wrong.
Can I upgrade to a higher Ah rating?
Sometimes—only if the battery fits safely in the compartment. Email us your model and requirements and we’ll confirm safe options.
Do I need to change all batteries at once?
Yes, always replace full sets at once in multi-battery models. Mixing old with new shortens life and can cause imbalance alarms or damage.
What about recycling old UPS batteries?
Bring them to our Montreal facility or any local battery recycling center. Never landfill—lead-acid is recyclable and regulated. See our FAQ for more info.
Do you provide installation if we need it?
Yes, for complex or high-power systems, or for customers needing full service, our GDFTech team handles onsite swaps, preventive maintenance, and consulting across Canada. For most small Tripp Lite models, self-install is simple if safety basics are followed.
