Default BACKUP/Redundant batteries

Has anyone run a backup system with a DigiSwitch? I bought a plane that uses one set to about 5.5 volts and was thinking of running a parallel Jaccio regulator at 6.0 volts. It seems to work okay but there is some current being drawn from the battery supplying the Digiswitch even when the Jaccio is supplying the bulk of the current to the system. Anyone see any problems?

Removing the digi-switch would leave a big hole in the fuse.
