Making a cable is no big deal, two connectors and two resistors (from any radio shack), and 4 wires. (Not hard if you know how to solder without burning yourself). I havn't looked at any of the other packages you mentioned (maybe I should) but upsd does get the job done with my castoff ups's. === Amateur Radio, when all else fails!
