Air compressor question

[cdiset]

I have 2 air compressors with alligator clips for the battery. Can I hook them both up at the same time and inflate 2 tires at once?

You should totally be able to do that...these little pumps have a very small draw on your battery

We used to make bumpers with 6" pipe and fill them with compressed air.

I've read of people doing that with rock sliders as well.

You can even get 2 more air compressor and it will still work with all 4 running at same time. Suggest leave engine running of course. The good kind of air compressors will have an inline fuse. cheapies dont. Think of protection your electrical things.

short answer is yes.

are they both the same compressors? same output, same current draw?

if yes, what are the specs? link to them?


just an FYI, assuming they put out the same CFM, you will want to give yourself a time cushion between each tire. otherwise you may end up overinflating one of them.

so put the compressor on the first tire, then give yourself a solid 30 count before starting the 2nd.
