[Nut-upsuser] CyberPower PR3000LCDRTXL2U — battery date reset?

[Jim Klimov]

Well, for a bit of devil's advocate - if the battery swelled, it might hace
leaked or fumed, contaminating the device and contacts.

The safe approach (for their liability, and for end-users' fire hazard
really) is to not claim the device is safe to use anymore.
