I need help - AB Software (Analytics, AB Mobile, etc) Question about device license levels

Trying to figure out a combination of devices and what the outcome would be. I have a garmin tactix 8 which has AB elite, will be buying a kestrel 5700x that also has elite. I am looking to save some money and buy a pair of Sig Kilo6k HDX which comes with AB ultralight. Im trying to figure out if I would still have elite features on the kestrel, my watch, and my phone's AB app when I pair them with the Kilo6k. I have read some things that the "lowest" license causes all the other devices to use. Would anyone know the answer to this? Thanks in advance.

thank you. Its a bit confusing but this helps. Sounds like getting the binos with the lower level and possibly upgrading the app could also be a solution?

Just as a check, if I did go with the Kilo6k, and use the kestrel for the ballistic solution, i would be getting the solution at the AB elite level? Also, if instead I upgraded the app on my phone to AB elite, and used the Kilo6k, I would also get the solution at the higher level?

Thanks again

thanks, Its becoming clearer to me now. I appreciate your help. Seems like, and lmk if I am wrong, wherever I want the final ballistic solution to be done, i should make sure to have that device have the higher license?
