Even though the ups has usb id: 0764:0501, UPS.PowerSummary.Voltage reports 26.6 for the 24V batteries so when the 0.667 battery scale is applied that goes down to 17.7V.

It's not just Dynex models - there are some early "UPS VALUE" and "CP 1000D" units that seem to need the correction factor. I'll try to add a check that looks to see if the battery voltage makes sense.
