Universal Pollers for devices that used different OID's for the same outputs.

I've been working on setting up a universal poller for some Geist Environmental sensors. I got them to work after updating the firmware on the devices however, Ive ran into some issues. 

When building out the custom views I have created custom dials to show the temperatures however, Some of the OID's for temps come from one OID and others come from a different OID. Is there a way to build the custom poller to read either or of the OID's that have a value on the transform results? 

Example an External temp probe on one NODE might use OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.21239.5.1.5.1.5.2 where other NODES are using 1.3.6.1.4.1.21239.5.1.5.1.2.2 for its External temp. Same make/model and firmware levels.

My first thought is a custom query that looks at both OIDS and only reports on the one with a value. You would have to filter it by potentially using null and the node id variable to eliminate the empty value. 

Alternatively - create two widgets, one based on each value and set them to hidden if they are not used. This is kludgy, but it should work and be pretty quick to implement.
