I have a cheap 22 gal 120V air compressor that runs pretty much continuously to keep up with air sander, paint gun, etc. I would like to gang together this 22 gal with another 25 gal tank to increase the volume of air available for painting, without buying a bigger volume air compressor. Can 2 tanks be driven off the same pump at a lower pressure, or will this simply guarantee that the pump will burn up trying to do more than it was designed to do? I am trying to avoid biting the bullet for a 240V line into the garage.
