I’m studying how to do this . . . May start with the original hand controller first and see how that goes before attempting the StarSense . . .

A regular splitter will work, but you must be some sort of OLD MAN to know what one of those is!

Celestron makes a "special" splitter which has a bit of cord on the single side, so you're not really stressing the port on the telescope, but a regular splitter is just fine.
Reason I asked is because I didn't think that the 5SE had enough extra ports to run both the WiFi module and the StarSense. The Evolution series has 2 AUX ports, so you can connect both at once.
So, if you have the WiFi module, have you run your scope using a tablet? It's pretty cool...the hand paddle is more reasonable, but there is a fun tech factor in moving it around by clicking stars on the screen.
