Hello all,
I run a RESMED S9 while I am camping. I use an UPS that is slaved to another large battery pack, then I plug in the AC to DC cord and there I go, I got air.
But here is the deal. I am going to the National JAMBOREE in July and this setup is a bunch of weight.
I am looking for a DC to DC cord for the S9 and better yet a 12 volt CPAP machine I can run off of a few 12 volt batteries. I'll have a solar panel etc.
The cost for this stuff new is costly. for 450 I can get a battery system built for the S9, or pay 89 for the DC to DC cord, or around 100 for a 12 volt system.
Money is just a little tight, and being a Ham operator I plan to build.
I would like to hear for others on what they did for this type of setup, etc.
RESMED S9 need another way to power it? camping

One of these comes in real handy. I use this along with my 100 APH Battery here at home for hurricanes and power outages. https://www.cpap.com/productpage/DC-Con ... hines.html

I use this battery.

I will run my S9 for 2 to 3 nights using a 150 watt inverter.
I think it will run my Intellipap for 4 nights.
