Cost To Replace Battery In Quartz Watch

I was very pleasantly surprised that my replacement battery was delivered to my door by courrier within 48 hr of my on-line order, which was placed on a weekend. This was the first time that I had ever tried replacing a battery instead to just buying a new UPS unit. None of the retailers selling APC products carry replacement batteries, and since I live in Canada, I expected that the cost of bringing in a replacement battery would exceed the cost of a new unit.. and be bogged down with customs duties.. etc. Battery was actually shipped from a nearby Canadian distributor. It is certainly more environmentally-friendly to replace a battery rather that throwing out a perfectly good UPS system. APC should do more to inform Canadian customers how easy it is (& cost -effective) to replace batteries. Perhaps include battery replacement information in packaging for new units.

The original Quartz lamp color... True 3200k.

I've wanted one of these for a while in order to use it as an intervalometer. Once the battery is in, the display is on until it shuts itself off. According to the manual, the display panel uses a liquid crystal display. With time, the display will become lighter and harder to read. In such a case, take the product to the nearest Canon Service Center to replace the display panel (at cost). So a built in cost to replace the display. I'll be curious to see how long this lasts.

Works just like a Cannon Battery, but at a lower cost.

This battery cost a fraction than a original one.

A good quality battery at half the cost.

Works as well as the OEM battery if not better, at a third of the cost.

Battery was very easy to replace with no need to shut anything down.

Replacement battery was a easy to replace.

Bought these to retire my quartz lights over the tabletop. Work Great! Especially like running on batteries and free of AC cords
