## Overview

The APC BR24BPG External Battery Pack is a dedicated runtime extender for the APC Back-UPS Pro BR1500G, adding 1500VA capacity and up to 5x longer backup time. It features four sealed lead-acid batteries in a durable, flame-retardant enclosure, plugs directly into the UPS for automatic recharging, and is backed by a 2-year warranty—perfect for professionals demanding uninterrupted power during critical outages.

## Description

Extend the runtime of your APC Back-UPS Pro 1500VA UPS with the BR24BPG External Battery Pack. Designed exclusively for compatible 1500VA Back-UPS Pro model BR1500G, this supplemental battery pack plugs directly into the rear panel of your UPS, adding four 9Ah, 24-volt batteries to the two 9Ah batteries already built into your unit. Adding the BR24BPG approximately triples your UPS's total runtime — for example, extending a 1500VA Back-UPS Pro from roughly 80 minutes to over 230 minutes at a 100W load — giving you significantly more time to work, game, or keep essential electronics running through longer power outages. The battery pack recharges automatically through your UPS's built-in charger, so there's no separate charging equipment to manage, and a heavy-duty, proprietary connector plugs securely into place for a stable, reliable connection. The vented, flame-retardant, leak-proof housing is engineered for durability and efficient thermal management, with styling that matches your Back-UPS Pro unit for a clean, consistent look. Sealed, maintenance-free lead-acid batteries are built for a 4–6 year expected battery life. Backed by a 2-year limited warranty from APC, the BR24BPG is the ideal way to add hours of extra backup power to your existing 1500VA Back-UPS Pro system — sold separately from the UPS unit itself.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What kind of audible alarm does this unit have?  Is it a simple beep and it over, or is it like a screeching banshee chasing its prey?**
A: Our model produces a continuous high-pitched beep that wouldn't stop until forced shutdown by depressing the power button for several seconds (like a laptop).

**Q: How long can the battery keep on a 800 watt machine when the power is off?**
A: Just because you have an 800W supply does not mean you are using 800 watts.  I have an 800 watt supply and it typically uses only 90-110W.  However I never got close to the advertised run times even with a brand new battery.  I got about 75-80% of the advertised run times even with a calibrated 30% load.  Also the run time that the machine reports is also a bit optimistic.  When it was new it was claiming around 60 minutes and was getting about 50 at best.  Now that the battery is 3 years old, it only reports about 28 minutes and but only can hang on about 18 minutes.

**Q: Description says surge protection is rated at 355 joules  -- not much protection at that low rate.  Is this correct?  Thanks.**
A: You are correct.  APC's site lists it at 354 joules.  That is pretty low compared to a good power strip at nearly 10 times that rating.  If you live in an area with surge problems (i.e. lightning), then you could plug the UPS into a good power strip first ... or rely on APC's connected equipment protection warranty.

**Q: If the input/output voltage for the addon battery pack is 12vdc, could a deep cycle be used by the unit in theory? The packs that power it are simply sealed wet cells anyway.**
A: The original battery pack is rated at 9Ah. The external battery pack is about 18Ah.  Meaning the charging circuit is designed to manage safely  a 24 Volt 27 Ah  battery set safely. The UPS has a fan which start when required,  so I think you could go up to a couple of 12 Volt 35 Amp AGM type battery in series without any risk but after that size I think  it's too much for this UPS model and will take too much time to fully recharge the batteries and perhaps overheat it.  Also keep in mind if you hook a USB cable to feed UPS status  info to a  computer,   the UPS will report a false reserve time and will force to shut down the computer well before  it's discharged.
