Generally for extended periods you would pedal with something like 100 - 200 W while small electric compressors seem to be in > 1 kW region (and don't get tired as quickly :D).
So basically with pedal power you could feasibly run some led lights and portable electronics but anything beyond this is not practical.
I wonder what the round up efficiency is like.
