The more I look into this ... the more I think that it's exclusively Tripp-Lite weirdness! There are some things that I explored as far as this being a Raspberry Pi problem, or a Raspbian problem, or even a Debian problem. But any problems I could find out there have long since been resolved with confirmed bug fixes. I noticed there have been a few people over the years on the NUT list that have other models of Tripp Lite and have had this same issue of random disconnections. So long as Tripp-Lite is not sharing their code with us, I think this will remain a mystery. At some point they are going to *have* to either update their Linux binaries, or drop them altogether. The specific distributions that they support with their proprietary software is loooong out of date. Perhaps at that point they will open source the code? Also there seems to be some speculation (or perhaps you know for a fact) that the Tripp Lite actually includes a serial to USB converter inside of the device. I have a stockpile of these awaiting deployment. Maybe I will open one and look inside.
