Thanks. I'll give it a try. I do know how long my UPS can run *from a full
charge* on battery power. However, I don't want to make the UPS wait till
100% power before turning back on after a power failure. I'd rather have
it turn on at like 25%, knowing that the system will shutdown at 10% if
the power goes out again.
Thanks,
