BLOW UPS battery XTREME 6 V 7.2 Ah, 1 cell, Black

The BLOW UPS battery XTREME 6 V 7.2 Ah is a sealed lead-acid maintenance-free battery designed for short-term backup power. With a nominal voltage of 6 V and a capacity of 7.2 Ah, this single-cell battery in black is intended for use in uninterruptible power supplies, emergency lighting, alarm systems and small telecom or electronic devices requiring a compact reliable power source.

Advantages

This sealed lead-acid battery provides a maintenance-free design that does not require water topping or regular electrolyte checks. Its compact, single-cell construction and modest weight make it easy to install in tight spaces. The battery is designed for reliable short-term backup, offering predictable discharge characteristics suitable for standby applications. The black casing provides a neutral appearance for integration into a variety of enclosures and systems.

Suitable for

• Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) for small equipment
• Emergency lighting units
• Alarm and security systems
• Small telecom and networking devices
• Portable electronics requiring 6 V backup

When it may not be suitable

This battery is intended for short-term standby and backup applications rather than long continuous deep-discharge cycles. It may not be suitable where long-duration off-grid power or deep-cycle performance is required. Also, because it is a sealed lead-acid type, it is heavier and bulkier relative to equivalent-capacity lithium batteries and may not be ideal where minimal weight or highest energy density is needed.

Key specifications

• Nominal voltage: 6 V
• Capacity: 7.2 Ah
• Battery type: sealed lead-acid (gel/gel-like maintenance-free)
• Configuration: single cell
• Intended use: standby/UPS and emergency backup
• Colour: black
• Weight: approximately 1.1 kg

How to use

Install the battery according to the UPS or device manufacturer's instructions, ensuring correct polarity and secure terminal connections. Use in indoor, ventilated locations away from direct heat sources and moisture. Charge the battery with a compatible charger or UPS charging circuit designed for sealed lead-acid batteries, following recommended charging voltages and current limits for 6 V sealed lead-acid cells. For standby applications, keep the battery connected to float charging to maintain capacity and periodically test under load to confirm backup performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm your device requires a 6 V 7.2 Ah sealed lead-acid battery and that terminal type and dimensions are compatible.
• Assess whether standby/short-term backup meets your runtime needs versus a deep-cycle or higher-capacity battery.
• Consider weight and physical size for the intended installation location.
• Verify charger or UPS charging settings support sealed lead-acid float and cyclic charging profiles for 6 V cells.

Usage recommendations

Store and operate the battery at moderate room temperatures to prolong service life, keep it on float charge when used for standby backup, and perform periodic capacity checks under load. Replace batteries showing significantly reduced runtime or visible case deformation. Dispose of according to local regulations for lead-acid batteries.
