It is common for an UPS to have different phases of charging, with the charging 
current tapering off at the end.

Which driver is this?

It is possible that there is more information that hasn't been mapped to a NUT 
variable in upsc, but there really isn't a lot of other standard information to 
convey. Some UPSes will report a status that we map to the "RB" (replace 
battery) flag in ups.status.

Lead-acid batteries are good for about 2-5 years in an UPS.
