Although upsd always shows up as hung in Activity Monitor, the Bulldog app responds to power failures. The memory leak and processor hogging that made previous versions of Bulldog unusable, unless the computer was restarted every day, is no longer an issue. So, Bulldog now seems to be a better option than the UPS controls built into Panther.
The manual is laughable. For example, the description for the Voltage Sensitivity menu option is "Adjust the UPS voltage sensitivity." OK, so what do the three options actually do. Some of us like to know these things. What exactly is reduced? Is it a percentage adjustment or a fixed number of volts? Really, I'd like to know. How about examples of when you'd want to change these settings? Just a thought.

Even after a restart, upsd is still reported as hung by Activity Monitor. I haven't run Bulldog long enough to see if the memory leak is gone. So, I'm not rating this version yet. The interface ickiness is gone, though.
Q: What is the Loading Level measuring?
Poll: What is your Loading level typically?
Mine is from 35 to 38%, and in the manual, it shows loading to be 0%. So I'm wondering if there is something wrong with my electricity in general.
