It would be helpful if NUT would be able to shutdown the UPS too. This  
is essential in case of unattended shutdowns. Are you telling that  
there is no way to make the UPS power off the outlets and wait for the  
mains power to return?

I'm not quite sure I understand what you're saying here. Do you mean  
the UPS no longer uses feature reports, but instead only pushes data  
through the interrupt pipeline?

We currently do use both feature- and input reports. Currently, when  
we get an input report (through the interrupt pipeline) we read the  
corresponding feature report (mostly for working around broken input  
reports on some Belkin models). We could make this optional however.

@Alexander: If you receive the newer unit, could you please run the  
usbhid-ups driver with -DDD enabled? I would love to see the new (?)  
report descriptor of this device. The version from the trunk should be  
able to recognize the VID:PID of the UPS, so there is no more need to  
use the explore option anymore.

Best regards, Arjen
