Hey everyone, I am in the process of building a new tank and am running into an issue. So, currently I am renting a house for the next couple of years and am placing my tank in the garage. I am getting an Apex 2016 with two energy bars to fit my needs for the tank. Issue is, I have one outlet by the area where I am placing the tank. The other outlet is by the garage door opener in the top middle. What I have in mind is connecting one energy bar to the outlet near the tank and the other one connected to the middle outlet with an extension cord. From what I am reading, I would need a 10 gauge extension cord or of that sort? For some idea of what I am running there is a list below this paragraph. Any insight would be much appreciated.
