Todd,
The shunt is only providing a mV DC signal. In our showroom we have a
working display wall of charge controllers and battery monitors (Blue
Sky, Trimetric, Morningstar, analog meters) with a single shunt to a
single battery. Works well for us. More than likely there is isolation
before the AD converter so I would not expect any problems with any
monitor.
Prescaler may be a different story although I suspect it will work. It
is just converting a high voltage reference to a low one that the
battery monitor can accept. If there was an issue I would try a small
DC-DC device at the prescaler outputs going to each monitor.

Has anyone ever paralleled two amp hour meters on one shunt? How
about paralleling two e-meters on a single shunt and a single
prescaler?
