As for "how much NUT" is doing, it depends :)

For many of the values where mapping tables are involved, it just reads
some number or string from the protocol encapsulation (usb-hid, snmp,
netxml...) and passes it on. However, that entry's mapping may also involve
scaling (multiply by a factor) or arbitrary subdriver-defined mapping
functions (name phases from a number, print ISO date from country-preferred
input, etc.) as the most common conversions.
Thanks.  I can see why it is that way.

I was wondering essentially about having a standardized UPS mib, both
names and units, and having each driver translate into that standard set
of values.

I'm monitoring 3, UPSes of 2 different brands, in 3 locations, heading
for probably 3 types in 5 lociatons.  I want a common view of how the
power is, without having to think about UPS type.  (I realize that I may
be the only one doing that.)

You are far from being the only one :)

I have multiple UPSes on 3 continents (4 or 5 models of APC UPSs, one Ablerex, some Eaton and some obscure brands no one has heard of but). Thing is that in some places it's quite difficult to find the model or even brand you'd like to use. Especially outside EU and most specially in African countries :(
