    I am trying to have my Ultragage and Veepeek simultaneously plugged into the OBD port so I don't have to switch them out and I wanted to have a switched splitter so I can switch between the 2 without removing anything. Will this item below do that?

    Should be fine. I’ve been using this one for a year or two with no issue, running my Maestro stuff and OBD Fusion at the same time. I feel like there’s something else hooked up but can’t remember what.. maybe remote start?

    So are you getting data packets sent to each at the same time or are you using them just for power?

    I’m 90% sure both work simultaneously, but let me double check in the morning. Someone else may be able to chime in before then though

    Thanks. I always thought it won't be able to actually communicate vehicle data from the ecu to 2 separate modules, but can definitely power 2 things with only 1 getting ecu info.

    Update today I installed my Ultragage and Veepeek together at the same time using the splitter and to my shock both were able to communicate simultaneously. Awesome.

    Crap! I totally spaced on checking that out. Glad you tested it and it worked though.

    For 15 bucks I rolled the dice. Great find. Now I need to tuck all the wiring and such.
