You've asked the vendor? They're selling a lot of units through newegg.com,
and have responded to some of the customer reviews there saying they have
more Linux support forthcoming. So at least some of the vendor's staff is
aware that better Linux support => more sales.

A comment from them on Linux is at:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16842102018 - they say
they're developing their own OS version of PowerPanel. Once that comes out,
obviously, the values NUT needs will be public. Would they have any reason
not to go ahead and share those values now?
