I am considering buying APC BR800-IN (880VA/550W) for my Linux WS. It has an USB port for monitoring purpose.
Is anyone using this model successfully with Linux (apcupsd or nut)?
Any other brand/model (same capac. range) that is Linux friendly (compatible with apcupsd/nut)?
TIA for your input.
Hey arun,
I am using APC Back-UPS ES500. No probs till now. Works perfectly well with my Fedora Core 2 and apcupsd. I get it to shutdown after a while when there is a power outage. Works pretty well. Happy customer here :)
