I don't think so. Unless the input voltage is exceptionally low (but then
the UPS would switch to battery), the power supply will not be hurt by it.
An input voltage that is too high, will hurt it, so I wouldn't worry about
it.

NUT has no way to control is the UPS is using BOOST/TRIM, this is
something that the UPS decides all by itself. So there is nothing we can
do about it, complain to Mustek if you feel this is wrong.
