Immediate help: APC Back-UPS 600 switch on button and battery LED constant red

[Anonymous user]

APC Back-UPS 600 switch on button and battery LED are constantly in red. No sound. No power connection. The device is not heating up. 3-4 years since purchase and usage. But the LEDs are working. Does it have possibility to explode? Please help.

It won't explode. 🙂

Especially with no heat.

Just stop using it and pull the battery out.

See if it will work as a power strip on the unprotected plugs.

If yes, just replace the batteries.
