Per your guidance on that page, I tried one that I hoped was compatible: “Cyber Power Systems ups 2 Value 800E USB (usbhid-ups)”. Every Cyber Power system with USB on the list there seems to use usbhid-ups anyway – so perhaps picking any of them is reasonable?</div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Picking anything that maps to usbhid-ups does seem reasonable, though it's possible that they pass additional options for certain models (I think FreeNAS does this).
