[Nut-upsdev] new ups for database?

Rob and Dave,

that device looks like it is using an illegal vendor id, "0001". It
also looks like it is made by MEC, not Belkin (probably sold under
license). 

We might be able to support its USB interface. To find out more,
please do the following:

* get the latest development version of NUT from SVN. You can follow
  the instructions at http://www.networkupstools.org/source.html under
  "Development tree" to get it.

* post the output of

   drivers/newhidups -DD -u root -x generic -x vendorid=0001 auto

  from this newest NUT version.

This should output a bunch of debugging data, and then go into an
infinite loop waiting for data. You can do "Ctrl-C" to kill the driver
(it will not do anything useful at this point).
