can 1 of these compressors work for 2 5 gallon tanks?

Yes works fine split the kit with my buddy we are both running 3 gallon tanks

Don't know for certain because not enough info on your particular float. The compressor comes with 4 adapters that should inflate about anything. You may find this tutorial on YouTube helpful https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJePZ0YWvJE

I have run a framing nailer from this compressor. Sometimes I would have to wait for the compressor to "catch-up" but certainly useable. Not sure a professional builder wouldn't want a bigger tank. I would not attempt to run 2 of them at once. Check the framing nailer manual for the CFM and PSI requirements.

No, you can't use the 5 gal air tank. The Discovery needs 2000 psi of air. That means you either need a scuba tank, the air pump made for it or a scuba air compressor to fill the gun to that pressure. Normal air compressors don't go over 150 psi ( pounds per square inch ) .

I'm just using a Porter cable pancake compressor 2hp 6 gal, and it works great!

I have "2" 2.5hp elcheapo compressors plumbed together and they work fine.I adjusted the pressure switches to be simultaneous as best as.They run all my air tools and I am a qualified mechanic of 40 odd years albeit die grinders you have to let the air build up on big jobs.The cheaper the item the more you need to look after them but so far so good 5 years now.I only use them at home, if you have a work situation multiple users of high consumption then you cant escape having to buy a good compressor.

My only concern would be that with this compressor your psi may get to low while doing larger areas. This unit has no tank and psi drops fast and would cause the compressor to run a lot. Does come with adapters for larger compressor

No bigger than the tank is it will probably work but it will run all the time. Also depends on the cfm (cubic feet per minute) but with 6 gallon of air reserved when the level drops on the air tank size of 6 gallon the compressor will kick on so heavey duty cleaning/blowing will run out of air in the tank pretty quickly. also depends on how high you have the copressor line side set to, 120 PSI is probably maximum it will run out of air pretty quickly and constant blowing will not be able to substain itself very long.

Yes no problem. Im a shop owner and have an 80 gallon compressor for work. This unit is great for home use.

I had a small compressor that I bought at Lowes. not big enough. I have now upgraded to a two stage compressor that does the trick. I was just using too many things at once on the old compressor. I think if I had nothing else hooked up to it I would have been fine.

I guess you could use this compressor without a tank.. Like one of them tire pumps for emergencies... Depending on your aplication. Do you need volume and pressure at once? Or low gradual flow of air to build pressure.. I recommend a tank, even if it's just a 1 - 2 gallon tank..

Right now I have a 50 gallon hooked up to it and occasionally I will run it a little flat. If you're only making a small cut every few minutes, you can use a small compressor. I'm not entirely qualified to answer your question but I do know that this machine will handle relatively large projects. It looks and feels cheap but we have not had any major problems with it yet. Word of advice, the bigger the compressor the better, purchase your tips and consumables now so you're not waiting on them, and protect the handle, it feels as though it can't take too many drops.

My compressor is larger than 1 HP but I can't imagine that a smaller compressor wouldn't work as well. The UView is a very good system.

2 should work, but to be effective they will need to be suspended about a foot above the tank. It works great on my 10 gallon reef tank.

I doubt it. For applications that need continuous airflow you really need a larger compressor. Check the tool you want to use, which will tell you the flow rate (cubic ft per minute) for the compressor you need.

My opinion is it would depend on how mobile you would like the compressor to be. If the unit will sit in a permanent location then yes. The other thing to consider is if you really need that much air. the 30 gal offers enough throughput to run a wide range of tools with no problem and can be ported to different location.

No.The small tank will not give you enough air.This compressor is only good for inflating tires.
