They don't cut voltage, there is just so much usage that the voltage drops slightly and the LEDS are sensitive to that drop. Happens up here in MA occasionally and my UPS starts beeping. These are just the ups and downs of heavy usage when its very hot

Voluntary cut backs is when there are known issues. . .
