However, any attempt to add it to the [myups] stanza in ups.conf is a showstopper error.
No mention of this "flag" in the rest of the file's comments.
So how does that syntax actually look like?
In ups.conf, you should be able to do something like this:
[myups]
driver = usbhid-ups
port = auto
pollonly
If that isn't working, check for spurious UPS-specific lines in the "global" section
(above the first UPS stanza like "[myups]"), or vice-versa (global options covered in
ups.conf documentation that got added to the end of the ups.conf template).
("pollonly" doesn't appear in the standard ups.conf template because it is
specific to usbhid-ups.)

That man page above is newer than the installed version here as debian
ships a 2.7.3 man page for ups.conf with 2.7.4. Leaky sock? Anyway,
its working. Thank you, take care and stay well
