Will I need a resistor so my signals don't go faster or is it just straight hook up. Thanks.

You can get a relay for led light at any auto parts store that will work got mine at advance auto parts.

They have built in amps so I have multiple methods to provide signals. I would be careful, we have purchased 3 to get two working units. We could have returned a defective unit but the warrant requirement that we pay to ship the defective unit made it not worth it. The build quality is TERRIBLE. But the two we have working sound incredible and are used daily in my wife's fitness studio. That being said I have had to bypass the on/off switch to keep one working...All in all they have been very well worth the effort because of the price. Good luck!

Yes. You just need a splitter. A signal booster is recomended when you split the signal.

Sorry didn't need to, so I'm not sure. Hooked it up on the passenger side of the Mtool box in on my pickup and got a grounding strap and hooked up an swr meter and got almost perfect signal.

I tried it with a power strip and it degraded the signal a lot. I ran a speedtest and it was less than a quarter of the speed when directly plugged into the outlet.

yes, signal will dilute with each connection and length of cable. Need to buy a good amp too ~$100.

It depends on the voltage of your sending unit. You can modify the voltage with inline resisters to match the empty and full signal of this gauge. I used it on a motorbike.

Without load resistors it will just blink rapidly. Still works perfect but just blinks a lot faster. GET RESISTORS!!!

Use an inline "powered" amplifier to boost the signal. Many have two or more outlets. Radio Shack has them, probably Amazon, Best Buy, eBay, or your local hardware store, will have them too. They're cheap no frills and do the job.

hey thanks for the reply. Do I need to buy another cable to make the connection ?

Yes, as this adapter doesn't have any way to alter the signal, what comes in is going out, it's a straight wire adapter.

That's worth a call to BRK/1st Alert. Since the interconnect I've wire runs from unit to unit, the battery-powered units should be able to send the signal, but I don't know for sure.

I agree with the other replies. You will need something much stronger for a good signal..

Yes, You need to install wirh load resistor if there is flashing faster. Please refer the link below to know what load register is. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007G6MQVM Regards Customer Service

I'm sorry I can't answer that question. I hooked mine to a Wilson Sleek cellphone amplifier (with excellent results, I might add. I now receive a 2-3 bar signal in a remote camp where there was zero signal with the Sleek and a high gain omni antenna.) But back to your question, I called the Wilson Customer Service people and they told me just what connectors to use. Customer reviews indicate one of the connectors is fragile, so I ordered a spare.

Yeah I agree with Danny, but with some creative engineering you can still boost the signal distance. The only way to boost the signal of something like this would be to utilize the interrupt pin and have it trigger from a read on the external antenna, Which would actually be pretty interesting to code and build. Hope this helps!

I believe that it depends on the input impedance of the device to which it is connected. It is designed to send two types of signals: a 300 ohm meter and an indicator light. It used the ground of the chassis as reference. You may determine which of the two pins are appropriate for your application using an ohmeter.
