Lance sent me the output of "lsusb -vvv" for this device off-list, and
here is the key portion of that:

        HID Device Descriptor:
          bLength                 9
          bDescriptorType        33

          bNumDescriptors         1

As Kjell mentioned, this looks like another one of those cases where
the innards of the UPS got an overhaul, but they kept the model name.

Lance: I forget, did you try the newhidups driver as well? That's the
one that should eventually support this UPS (tripplite_usb only
handles the older serial-protocol-over-USB models).

You may have to pass the manufacturer and model options to newhidups
as well, since we were not aware of this alternate vendor/product ID
for this model of UPS.
