here is your debug..

By the way the patch for power is INDEED for nominal power (i.e. the 
power rating) and not the current power. But it is for real power rether 
than aparent. Thus ups.realpower.nominal is the correct naming. I think 
that the Config* usbhid paths are nominal values in general.
