My APC Back-UPS CS 500 looks completely different. It's beige for a start, and battery replacement is far easier. But I cannot find a replacement battery with F2 Faston spade terminals. All the ones I've seen listed on the internet have F1 Faston spade terminals. The F1 version is narrower, at 4.75mm, whereas the F2 version is 6.3mm wide. The last time I replaced the battery was in 2014 and I purchased it from APC. Cost me 41 quid! Now the cheapest replacement from several suppliers is under £20, but like I say they all have the narrower F1 4.75mm spades.
