The UPS aspect of this device became a secondary feature and it was the AC switching (via inbuild HTTP server over ethernet) that I used it for primarily. I've checked the APC site and they don't make it any more, does anyone know of any alternatives?

Looks good, but I suspect very expensive. APC say my existing device (APC Back-UPS HS BH500INET) is not available in my country, however, I've found it listed on pricespy.

Have you contacted APC in NZ? IT Power are the NZ agents.
