analog pyro & juice hooked into 1 tap?

can you run a analog pyro & the juices probe off of one tap? I like the juice but would like analog guages, don't want an empty tap/coupler/whatever you call it sticking out of the manifold if a warrenty issue came up

Some have posted it is possible, but I don't think it would work reliably. Edge recommends against it and I am sure any of the gauge manufacturers would not recommend it either.

Almost all pyro's work within a very specific/small millivolt range. I don't think either would work well with the voltage split between two different gauges!!

I have a banks sixgun speed loader and a autometer phantom series pyro both going to one sensor, works perfectly.

the voltage is still the same if you y- the leads, that is how I have my TST hooked up. Just make sure they are parallel, not in series.

Do you have a pic of your setup where the wires attach to the probe?

I would make the excess wire short as possible to help eliminate any excess resistance that the gauge wasn't calibrated for. Why wouldn't it work? Voltage is always the same in a parallel circuit. If its off you would be able to tell, if you do some before and after tests.
