2021 Ford F-150 PowerBoost and VIAIR Compressor Kit Compatibility
Regarding the Ford F-150 POWERBOOST engine ... are there any warnings or concerns about using a VIAIR Portable Compressor Kit that attaches directly to the truck battery with alligator clamps? I've not found anything yet in Ford literature and want to be sure there are no risks to the PowerBoost system before making a VIAIR purchase or attempting to jump start another vehicle.
New to the Forums ... thanks for the help! Nice to meet everyone.

I see no reason there should be any issues connecting a 12V accessory to the 12V battery either permanently or temporarily.
Don't mess with the high voltage wiring harness and you will be fine, I believe the high voltage is only for the electric motor and related accessories, everything else uses 12V like any other vehicle
