We have a Goodyear 120 Volt Multi-Purpose Air Compressor (it is used to fill our truck tires). My question is regarding whether or not we can plug this air compressor into the outdoor outlet of our Fifth Wheel while its parked in storage. And, is there a possibility of it blowing fuses if we do this. Of course our only source of power would be the Fifth Wheel' battery (assuming its has power).
Secondarily, if we needed to have the power cable connected to our truck (in the event the battery was dead), would it blow fuses in our truck?
Thanks, in advance, for your help with this.
That's really going to depend on what the outlet is rated for and what the air compressor is going to draw. Normally 10amps plus on the compressor and 12 - 15 on the outlet. Should be okay but what if you have no 110v? Mockturtle called it with 12V air compressor. They are a bit slower but you're really never going to have a time or place where it won't work for you. It's also doubles as a fantastic way to keep your cell charged around the campfire.
