I've been mostly happy with it. It works with NUT as a usbhid device. I'm not sure if there are more advanced tools available, like with APC units.<br></div><div><br></div><div>My only complaint is that it never told me the battery was shot. Even a momentary brown-out would immediately shut off the device, and I'd have to reboot everything. Self-tests passed, and the display stated I had about 45 minutes of runtime. It just wasn't actually working anymore.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Replacement batteries solved the issue, but I wish it had some sort of notice, even if just on the built-in display.<br></div><div><br></div><div id="sig91988184"><div class="signature">--<br></div><div class="signature"><b>Chris Irwin</b><br></div><div class="signature"><br></div><div class="signature"><span class="font" style="font-family:menlo, consolas, monospace, sans-serif;">email: <a href="mailto:chris@chrisirwin.ca">chris@chrisirwin.ca</a></span><br></div><div class="signature"><span class="font" style="font-family:menlo, consolas, monospace, sans-serif;"> web: <a href="https://chrisirwin.ca">https://chrisirwin.ca</a></span><br></div></div></div><div><br></div></body></html>
