Just a couple of issues.  I noticed upon rebooting when checking status, 
only the UPS properties were shown and current UPS status was 
disconnected.  Only when I removed and plugged in the USB cable from the 
UPS did current UPS status show info.

I also don't see "load" and "line interaction" parameters like in yours 
above as they are missing.
