Yes, my compressor is very small and I just flicked it on for a nanosecond to check the power port connection. I have a 2-prong battery tender lead that I would normally use for operation.

Flicking it on and then off is the only reason it seemed to work. As Squib wrote the outlet fuse is only 3A and the wiring is Oh-Two-Small for anything much heavier.
There are MANY threads about this and the various ways people have added simple heavier fused outlets &/or FuzeBlocks or the like.

And please start threads in an appropriate sub-forum, like where this one is being moved to. thx
