Apparently, your UPS doesn't update the reported battery charge, until  
the power is restored. There is nothing we can do about that.

The only thing that worries me here a little, is that the status  
doesn't change from OL to OB when the mains is interrupted. This means  
that there may be a conflict between the two HID paths that feed this  
status:

	UPS.PowerSummary.PresentStatus.ACPresent
	UPS.PowerSummary.ACPresent

You could help diagnosing this, buy running the driver in debug mode through

	/path/to/usbhid-ups -DD -a upsname

Disconnect the mains and let it run until the load is switched off.  
We're only interested in the above two HID paths, so please only post  
the relevant lines from the output.

It does, otherwise the other values wouldn't change either.

Best regards, Arjen
