OK,

	Well I guess you have seen enough of my CP UPS output ;-) It it frustrating 
that suse doesn't update the nut package very often. After all the work you 
did to get the voltage to display correctly instead of at 20V, suse still has 
updated the package. However, I have an Archlinux box with the same CP UPS and 
the voltages are perfect.

	Thanks again to you all, you guys do great work.
