Thanks for this! Definitely going to look into doing this!
I typically run the ups monitor off a suitable openwrt box (most have at least one usb port) no need for a separate pi. I tend also to hang a good gps off a second usb port, if available. There's a topic for geeks - does anyone else really know (or care) what time it really is?
Thank you,

note that if your ups has a usb port, you can attach a raspberry pi and run upsmon to be told (among other things) when the battery requires replacement rather than rely on hearing the beeps. good for the out-of-the-way closets with network gear.
