Hmmm... Me, too. I hadn't noticed it until your message. I see it on 
lsusb:  Bus 004 Device 003: ID 09ae:2007 Tripp Lite

I've now installed apcupsd and apcupsd-gui.I started the apcupsd service 
and ran application->system tools->apcups monitor.  I hnow have a tray 
applet running.  It does not, however, seem to integrate in any way with 
power management and auto-shutdown when battery is getting low.
