How many sensors can you connect to the + output of the shock sensor before it will draw to many amps? Would 4 sensors be enough to burn up the 12v + circuit? Should a relay be used? Thanks for the help!

You should never connect power or ground for additional sensors to the original sensor. The only thing that should go to the original sensor is the trigger wires.

Thanks! Wish the manuals that came with these things gave you important information like that.
