 Thanks, Charles. I ran another test using rev 527. It looks better (the
 status line now says OL), but I'm not sure about a few things. I put
 the debug output here: http://www.cs.swarthmore.edu/~knerr/ups.html
 Let me know if that's not the best format for you.

 Here are my observations from the debug data:

 - battery.test.status always says "Battery state unknown" (not sure if
   that's important or not)
 - ups.status says OL even after I pull the plug. Should it say "on
   battery" or something?
 - ups.temperature looks ok until I pull the plug, then goes to -20.6
   (but I doubt I'll use this for anything)
 - once the battery light goes red, the ups.status changes to OL LB, so
   that seems to work!

 Let me know if you think there's more to fix here. And thanks again for
 helping with this.
