Made the following changes per a TrueNAS forum relating to same issues with a Cyberpower UPS using BSD NUT.
 

 

ignorelb
override.battery.charge.low = 20
override.battery.charge.warning = 40
ondelay = 0
pollinterval = 15
DEADTIME 25

 

Lets see if this works.
 
Update 17:49 c time
 
No UPS Nut log entries as mentioned above so far.
 
Here is a picture of the status and settings.
