DOC, The mushroom part goes on the inside of the tire.
Back in the old days I pluged a rear tire with a Stop n Go repair kit. It got me home. That kit had a hose that screwed into the sparkplug hole and then you started the bike and pressure from the piston going up and down worked the pump to fill the tire.

I carry a plug kit from Wally world and a mini electric compressor, also from Wally.

Where do you plug in an electric compressor? Have you added on a cigarette lighter plug?

I think some of them have aligator clips to contact directly to the battery

Yes, I mounted one of those marine plugs (with flip cap) inside my left side cover.
