Re: New travel size machine- Resmed Air-Mini- coming soon

Just spoke with Resmed 20 minutes ago (0900 April 18th in Australia) and they advised should be available mid May 2017 and fully featured I emailed Resmed Australia and they told me on April 13 that "if all goes to plan the airmini should be released in Australia on May 8." I wouldn't hold your bre...

Re: ResMed AirMini Update

Anyone heard whether the AirMini will be a CPAP or APAP? $899 is a steep asking price for a non-auto unit. (And I hope street prices will be a fair bit lower!) If you go to you tube and type in: watch?v=m9oSMNdz91I The guy says it is an APAP. Can someone please tell me if Australians can buy machin...

Re: ResMed AirMini Update

I notice in the sweepstakes terms, the Grand Prize of an AirMini system, mask, & $1000 gift card has a value of $1999. That implies the AirMini & mask bundle will be $999. If that is the case, you American's are so lucky. Resmed is an Australian company and we have to pay so much more. Something is...

Re: ResMed AirMini Update

ResMed is telling me the AirMini will be released by the end of April/May time frame. Sooner than expected. They launched the product at a sales event last Friday April 7 in Sydney. I think they had an earlier on in Brisbane as the guy in the you tube below said he went a week earlier. By "launch" ...

Re: New travel size machine- Resmed Air-Mini- coming soon

Make or break for me (in addition to price *smile*) is noise level. If I can sleep with it on, then I'd consider it. The price may be prohibitive, though. The other thing that I heard was that there isn't a separate humidifier, but there is a way to get humidity into the system. Not sure what it is...

Our health insurance gives you some back f or a new machine every two years. Doesn't cover the whole cost.

Re: In need of a travel CPAP that I can program

I have listened to the Z1 travel by HDM and the Transcend auto CPAP machines. They both specify that they are 26dB. Both were set to pressure 5 so not the loudest they go. They were both louder than the Resmed Airsense 10 but they weren't too bad. The Z1 was a bit louder than the Transcend. The nois...
