Re: Opinions on less popular CPAP units,....

Re: M-Series whining noise

Your assumption ref the frequency drive theory could be correct. Now in my case I have not traveled or handled the machine much since I received it two weeks ago yet I have the same problem. And no its not the mask or the hose!! In fact, I have removed the mask completely and just running my hand v...

So, my complaining about leaking is based solely on my personal experience, not what I see in my data. With a 7.0 minimum level, I wasn't waking from any leaks. (I w...
