Developing the UPS side of the UPS-NUT equation (via usbhid)
...ing to understand WHY it's like this, based on the table in 3.2.3 of the PDC HID doc. Why did they think that volts needs an exponent of 7 in them?
I also noticed that current (amps) is listed as centiAmp, with a -2 unit exponent in the HID doc....however, the table in libhid.c which contains HIDUnits does not include anything for amps, just voltage and power.
I'm wondering if there is even any real value in specifying units, because it seems like more of an obstacle to easy value understanding than anything else. Any why does the NUT library use the 7 exponent for voltages, but not the -2...
