Wow... I think I saw that dip in power if it was around 1:30...

That obviously shouldn't happen - I guess maybe those UPSes aren't as awesome as they should be... but it's the ones that I thought were the good ones that "failed" in this situation. Anyway, Tom, that's why some of your runs crashed - you should be able to restart them safely.
