Default Balance tap for telemetry voltage

I fly 3s and 4s in my gliders
futaba 14sg with telemetry
the external voltage supply is supposed to be soldered into the Motor battery wires
but
i use a voltage led readout and beeper that I leave plugged into the balance tap
it works fine
when I hear it beeping I land
i was thinking of using a "Y" harness on the balance tap and if the external voltage connection to it
i found a website that described connecting low power consumption devices to the balance tap and they work fine
all I need is a voltage read out they draws little to no power
plus my led readout/beeper
is this ok?
