<-- Great! - that's very interesting. Among the FAQ's for that product, someone does reference the need to push a button. I have a RAVPower USB bank - and it works great - but once the battery has discharged, it needs a button to be pushed. I use the Allstar PI as a jump box to tunnel through to other devices on the same network - hence my need for the device to auto-recover and gracefully shutdown to avoid corruption of the SD card. I've been thinking about a UPS as I could use that to keep other devices powered up during a power outage. It would be awesome to have a UPS where the AC outputs can be switched remotely (i.e., to recycle an appliance / device). My initial thought was to use an IP9258T power bar. I'm currently using one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Jinvoo-Protector-Outlet-Charging-Station/dp/B071ZGDDQ... The great thing about this is that it allows you to remotely control each output and the USB ports - the bad thing is that when there's a power outage, it seems to default to all outlets OFF and turns on the USB power..... DUH - since my RAVPower USB bank has been plugged into one of the AC outlets, the fact that the power bar defaults to OFF after a power outage, is forcing my USB battery bank to discharge over time.
