If you use a backup power supply that utilizes RBC11 batteries, it’s a good idea to replace them once a year.

As with any battery, knowing how long it will last is an impossible guess; it is said however, that an RBC battery will last approx a year. If you are looking for an answer on how long should you leave it before you change your battery, then you should err on the side of safety and do not leave it any longer than two years. Most battery retailers and manufacturers offer a one year warranty simply because one year is the maximum amount of time that you can safely rely on an RBC11 battery.

Replacing your emergency flashlight’s batteries is comparable to this practice. The batteries inside the flashlight might still be in fine condition, but they might not, and it’s better to know that they are rather than wait and find out the next time lightning strikes a generator.

Before buying your new RBC11 battery, make sure to take a look at your current battery and write down the specifications. Hardware manufacturers have a tendancy to change their specifications without notice; beware of this because the manufacturers website may list one size and your RBC11 may be a different size entirely. One of the most common complaints registered with RBC11 battery retailers is that the battery does not fit. When this occurs, shipping the mismatched battery back to the retailer and buying the correct size is usually a responsibility given to the buyer, so make sure you’re not wasting postage and handling money by ordering the wrong size battery.

You should also be on the lookout for retailers who offer safe battery disposal. Due to the various leads and acids you’re not allowed to actually just simply drop your old battery in the trash. When you are looking to replace your battery, check out the company’s website to see if they offer a safe disposal plan. Most of them will let you use the same box your new battery arrived in to send the old one back.
