Smart-UPS SRT (and the older Smart-UPS RT) use sealed lead-acid (SLA) cartridges in a defined APCRBC configuration. Smart-UPS Ultra (SRTL) uses lithium-ion batteries. Both are user-replaceable, and on most models the swap can be done while the UPS protects the load (check the user manual for your model). APC gives a battery life of 3 to 5 years for SRT lead-acid cartridges and 5 to 10 years for SRTL lithium-ion.
UPSPLUSBATTERY.CA stocks compatible SLA cartridges for the SRT range. We do not stock lithium batteries for the SRTL; they come from APC (APCRBC173-LI on the SRTL 2.2 and 3 kVA models, per APC's data sheets). For Smart-UPS line-interactive cartridges, see APC Smart-UPS replacement batteries. For Back-UPS, see APC Back-UPS replacement batteries. Full APC battery catalog at APC RBC batteries.
