Hello Bob,

I would not recommend this with ECU`s like ProJet, JetCat and EVO Jet for example. Because all these ECU`s have a security "feature" called galvanic separation.
If you plug in a current telemetry sensor without a galvanic separation you connect the ECU current side to the receiver side.

The galvanic separtion is then bypassed.
