What's the best tank setup for helium? One big tank or two smaller ones?
Asked by CuriousExplorer87
I'm trying to figure out the best helium tank setup for a project. Specifically, I want to know the minimum tank capacity I need to ensure a successful result. Should I just go for one large tank (over 20 liters), or is it better to connect two smaller tanks with a T-tube connector? Also, I've noticed that some valve pressure regulators can be quite pricey (over $150); what's a more acceptable option I could use instead?

About the tank setup, a large tank would be more efficient for your needs, but connecting two tanks can offer flexibility and potentially better pressure stability. Just make sure your T-tube connector is secure and can handle the pressure. As for the regulators, check out some budget-friendly options online, but make sure they meet safety standards!
