Have you checked the voltage? 110 versus 220 makes a big deal. I did the same thing to somebody’s stereo system when I was a kid living in Europe and had no idea what a transformer was.

If you bought it off the fleabay then it was likely Chinese and potentially set for 110 in North America. I’ve looked at ventilation recently and there’s a UK manufacturer that offers conversion for a small fee extra.  The problem is that its more than my compressor and current ventilation now at around $300. On top of that I’d say that the next compressor that’d use oil will be about double that price. The cost of quality is dear but ultrasonic isn’t really so.

A tip I picked up from YouTube was threading the same material used in root canals through the nozzle. I haven’t picked up any yet but it would help with any clogs inside to bring down the instance of drytip.
