Bob,
Hope this comes through ok. This is a backup battery assembly for a trutrak ADI. Pins 1 and 6 are hardwired for normal operation. Pin 8 is switched on for backup battery. Switch illuminates in backup position.
I’d like to attach a second instrument (nominal draw of 0.45MA (at) 13.8 v illuminated) to take advantage of the availability of backup.
I understand and am not concerned about reduction in overall time of operation of backup if both units are on.
Can I just run the white/red power output to both units?
Do I need diodes in line with each unit in case one fails?
Other alternative arrangement?
Thanks in advance,
Tom Hanaway
