Hi Charles,

Thanks for the response!

I don't believe the battery.charge is actually 30%.  I watched the 
"battery.charge" go down from "100" to "3", so I can only assume this field to 
be "%".  Here is what it currently looks like after charging over the weekend:
====================================================
[root@localhost ~]# upsc myups@localhost
battery.charge: 100
battery.charge.low: 10
battery.charge.warning: 30
battery.runtime: 2273

====================================================

Kept the first few of the Serial # this time.  Didn't realize it could actually 
be helpful.

Regarding the "-DDD" option, what command do I run this with?  Which command to 
stop and start the driver?

Also, thanks for the advice about "ignoreLB".  I'm going to give that a shot, 
but I'm still curious why it isn't sensing my Low Battery state and actually 
putting that information into my ups.status.

Please let me know about the "-DDD" option.

Thanks again for your advice.

Is it possible that battery.charge is really 30% rather than 3%?

The 3016 protocol models have issues with scaling on some of the voltages and 
frequencies. You can see this by killing the driver, and restarting it with 
'-DDD'. If you want to mail that log to the list, please gzip it first. Also, 
only about the first minute would be necessary.

Pretty sure the letters in the serial numbers are uppercase :-)

Given how many of the model names are reused for very different hardware, it 
can be helpful to see at least the first few digits of a serial number, but in 
this case, I don't think we have too many other reports of this hardware to go 
on. The closest ones seem to be:

That is correct. You can also configure NUT drivers to ignore the UPS's LB flag 
and synthesize it from battery.charge or battery.runtime: 
http://networkupstools.org/docs/man/ups.conf.html (search for 'ignorelb')
