Default UPS Battery Backup

Are there any on the market that can report a fault via email ?

Had a sitation recently when a battery ran out and due to its isolated location, nobody was aware until it was too late.

We use a 9305 from http://www.powerware.com/ in our server room. When the power goes it emails me at home so that I can get to work before the UPS power drains.....normally

Great UPSes (OK, average UPSes), abysmal cutomer support. They have nice features, but of the six we run at work, three have been warranty replaced, and a further five battery packs have been needed. They are all SmartUPS Inets if it makes a difference...
