One thing I would not do is steal distilled water from the baby section to fill a CPAP, Nope. Even before a pandemic. That goes for other supplies, like wipes that are meant for babies/toddlers.

EDIT to clarify supplies

So last night I dropped my phone directly on top of my cpap machine (ResMed AirSense 10). I didn’t think it did any damage till this morning, when I could not turn the machine off. I ended up unplugging it from wall. Has anyone else ever had a problem with on/off button? Or swapped out the on/off s...

Also, if you're staying in a "religious" accommodation, make sure that they won't have an issue with using the CPAP on the Sabbath (Friday night / Saturday morning), or on Jewish Holy Days. Since it is life-saving medical equipment, it should be exempt from this restriction (by religious law), but ...

ResMed F20. Either the AirTouch or AIrFit. Now that it comes with diffused air elbow, Quiet Air, there is not much sound when face is buried in pillow. Also, downsizing the mask cushion helped me with it being too bulky but sometimes leaks air at corners of mouth.

I've traveled commercially with my ResMed Airsense 10 Autoset, many times. In returning from Phoenix yesterday, I found that the Power Switch on my machine is damaged. It feels different - No click; more of a mushy feel. It appears to be slightly more "pushed in" than normal. If I push very hard, I...

I am down to about 1 espresso shot a day...I am a crappy addict and can't seem to nix it all, but I am substantially down from 2-3 cups a day I guess. Feels bad lol. It's only been a month, seems to me you are moving along, but not so much if your goal was "no caffeine" Let your body get used to 1 ...

Using 200mg caffeine pills to come off. According to mayoclinic.org, the range of caffeine in 8 ounces of brewed coffee is from 95 to 165 mg. https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/caffeine/art-20049372 Thanks, Yes this seems to support my decision to cho...

and feel free to hold me accountable and call me names if i fail :mrgreen: How is the caffeine detox working out for you? I'm down to 1/4 the amount of caffeine each day and feel good, not craving coffee (sorta) but all in all doing well. Should be off by Feb. 25. Using 200mg caffeine pills to come...

Like Okie bipap said,
ResMed's QuietAir™ vent technology for AirFit F20 and AirTouch F20 masks has a baffle in front of vent holes.

THANKS everyone!!! This is sooo helpful! How do you wash your masks? Do you get the "memory foam" or whatever- sorry I sound ignorant i know- wet too? Last time i did that it took like 3 days to dry. Yes, I've washed mine (still unsure if this is a good idea or recommended) but mostly wipe it with ...

I get pimples if I don't wash my face right after I wake up. Mostly because I forget if I don't. I use a Cetaphil type soap and "yikes" cold water, but that is only if there is no hot water in the pipes. Seems to reduce the mask lines as well. Depends on what I did that day but I often wash dirt, su...

Then, I have tried to change the mask fit to auto start the therapy without me needing to hit any button (I am used to it, it is sooo nice) but it does not work! Any idea why it wouldn't work? You tried to change the setting for "autostart" but the setting would not change or it did change to read ...

and feel free to hold me accountable and call me names if i fail :mrgreen: I hope your caffeine detox is going well. I decided to quit "again" around the 21st and I'm at 1/2 the amount per day. End of first week at 1 3/4 amount was bad, headaches and fatigue. I expect to be off by the 25th or so. B...

The OP may PM me if they want to know what it is. if i may suggest it, a good way to avoid this altogether is for YOU to PM the OP. Good suggestion, I see "The collective wisdom of the group is greater than the wisdom of any one member (mainly me)." I reread the OP's ? and they prefer OTC.
