OBD splitter cable

I want to be able to use the savvy cable for the valentine one and connect a p3 vent gauge. I wondering if anyone else tried this and if it works. There are two types on amazon a regular and a low profile cable.

Any help is appreciated

I've tried OBD2 splitter cables before (not on a BMW, though) and the way OBD2 works, it won't allow two addressable devices on the line.

In non technical speak: it won't work.

Of course, as I said, that wasn't on a BMW, so you never know. But I would make sure that your devices and the cable are returnable if it turns out not to work.

Haven't tried with the P3 but I did attempt to use a few different splitters with Savvy and a wireless diagnostic OBD2 dongle and couldn't get it to work :
