Let me know how well the air mattress inflator works as an emergency CPAP. Or heck, just connect the mask to the air mattress. What could possibly go wrong?

Other possible uses for a CPAP...

Drying hair, drying paint, drying floors, fire starter, SUBA gear, air duster...

Set up resmed to 12.5 and inflate! Use a $600.00+ machine to inflate a $2 mattress. Done in 45 seconds. Thank You CPAP people for showing me how to adjust pressures.
