wondering which would be better.
Will using around the home for home projects.
I would go with the one 5 gallon tank.
Advantages:
One tank to drain water from, not two
Do I have to drain a compressor often if I just keep it charged up in
the garage for bike tires etc. and the occasional use of brad nailers etc.?
Less weight
More capacity
On sale!
Disadvantages:
Requires slightly more space to store
The motor size and specs of both units appear otherwise equal.
