Specifically Smart-UPS 1000 and battery replacement
I replaced the battery on 6/14/2022. It works fine, but it tells me it's time to change the battery (L.01 code). When I checked my dashboard (smartconnect.apc.com), it told me the same thing.
So, I bought another battery thinking the one that I bought was bad. Replaced it. Now it's, not giving me the L.01 error yet; but it will. My dashboard says I'll need to replace it by the end of August.

Hi @Anonymous user
Thank you for reaching out to the SE Community, my name is Jon and I will assist you with this query. Apologies for the late revert and any inconvenience this has caused you. Will you be able to provide the model number of the UPS and the age of both the UPS and the battery?
