This is an interesting idea, one which I'm not necessarily against. But I suppose it moreover comes down to the question of whether or not Shield and Armor Repair-Tools should be separate equipment. But given how Dust is built around the idea of squad-dependence, and given how 1.8's suit changes seem to be pushing most roles back towards this idea, I'm leaning more towards them being separate equipment (since that promotes even more diversity and role-specialization). Anyway, in terms of your idea, I would recommend having the standard rep-tool only able to heal either armor or shields, not both at once. But then offer variants that can simultaneously heal both at a reduced rate, and/or with some other penalty.
Also, your title might just be a little misleading, FYI.

The only problem with having them as separate equipment is going to be the whining of many players saying they can't be a great support logi because I have to carry two rep tools and can't fit my hives/ scanner/ injector etc. I do like your idea about having variants though. It would offer more diversity to the game. I can somewhat see your point. I mean like I said, I'm not necessarily against the idea. As an incredibly minor point, it would make at least a little more sense from a lore perspective to introduce this idea, as Minmatar tend to have the ability to either armor, shield, or dual tank.

I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you about having two separate rep-tools. But why does Dust need to be as much like Eve as possible to be successful?
