As far as I know the answer is yes to all those questions, but only one device at a time.
Note I cant guarantee the above it really would be a test and see. but the smart shunt is really the same as a BMV unit without the screen and it worked there so it should for the smartshunt as well using logic,
Sorry I cant give you a 100% answer
Yes, I tested & it works well. My post about this is here: https://community.victronenergy.com/questions/98360/improving-smartshunt-bluetooth-range-amateur-resul.html
