Did you use the same input plug for both lipos? If so, all I can say
is that it only costs $14. If not, there may be some frontend
circuitry in there that somehow establishes a secondary and a
primary battery input to the single regulator.<br>

When I did the test, only one lipo at a time was hooked up to the
separate switch/regulator inputs. The output voltages were
different, which I attributed to tolerances in two regulators
within the device. If there really is only one regulator in the
switch/regulator, I cannot understand why there's a difference in
output voltages. <br>

Ed is saying the single regulator dual outputs are not
independent as they would be if you used two tech-aero or
jaccio regulators.<br>
Sounds like a good system to have on a smaller cheaper
aircraft than our 2 meter pattern planes. Gives you
redundant batteries but not redundant power systems. You
are now reliant on a single point of failure 14 dollar
regulator. <br>

It is a dual
regulator/switch which
allows you to hook up two
lipo batteries and have them
separately regulated to 5.9
volts and use one or both of
the outputs. Look here:
