I've got a belkin 1000VA UPS, and am interested to see how much juice my system is using. Back when I had xp, I used their bulldog software, but they seem to have let the product do to EOL, and there doesn't seem to be a program for Vista (64-bit especially)

thanks. yeh- I was looking at one during the summer, but the only thing is I remember this ups can log current and voltage draws, battery health and charging levels, and the cleanliness of the incoming electricity

All good features to have on a UPS but worthless if the company doesn't make the software to use thos features for Vista.

That's Belkin for ya. Don't buy their power products if you really care about your equipment. Their business plan doesn't allow for much in the way of ongoing driver support, etc.
