[Zmagnette] Your humble servant...

[Mike]

Are the vacuum and compressor sucking up air from the same enclosed space that is your warm & snug shop? Do your ears pop if they both start at the same time? I have a hard time believing that the compressor lowers the shop's air pressure enough to make the vacuum labor, but that's the only other idea I have besides John's electrical load explanation.

I suppose you could bring a barometer into the shop and check the air pressure that way.


Mike

Your compressor draws too much current and your wiring won’t support it. You could be in for some overheated wire which could lead to a fire. Best to get 200 amp service or at a minimum a separate circuit for the compressor.

Update: ' got both sides finished correctly yesterday.  
 
Here's a little shop quiz (as opposed to pop quiz) item for you.  I figured it out - let's see if you come up with the same conclusion.  I was bead-blasting a hub yesterday. With outside temp moderating to around 30º F ( -1º C), my three little shop heaters make it very comfortable to work out there. I'm lovin' it! So, I'm bead-blasting away and I note that whenever the compressor cycles off, the vacuum cleaner on my cabinet speeds up slightly. Why? 
 
Cheers,
Allen
