I would like to get a much smaller power adaptor in replacement of the "brick" that comes with my Philips DreamStation when I am traveling oversea. I find it hard to find a smaller off brand adaptor that has a connector that fits my CPAP since they are usually way to small. Anybody has any recommendation on this?
Thanks!
Universal mini power adaptor?

Re: Universal mini power adaptor?
Why risk your expensive medical equipment with oddball power sources?
If it is too *heavy*, use a cart. I am the biggest (4'10") wuss ever,
so I put wheels under everything.

Re: Universal mini power adaptor?
I just checked our sponsor. Your power supply accepts 100 - 240 volts AC. It is the perfect one for traveling with the proper receptacle adapters.terrylai wrote: ↑Sat Apr 21, 2018 2:31 pmI would like to get a much smaller power adaptor in replacement of the "brick" that comes with my Philips DreamStation when I am traveling oversea.

My Resmed has a brick, but my Intellipap has the transformer built in.
All it needs is a cord--no brick.
I thought Respironics machines were the same--no brick.
Am I wrong? Never had a Respironics.
Edit: according to cpap.com, the AC adaptor is built in.
Is this a drive-by???

I did a search that took me to here

Looking under Replacement Parts took me to here

Looking under Specs:
AC Power Consumption (with 80W Power Supply): 100 - 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz,/ 2.0 - 1.0 A

Re: Universal mini power adaptor?
All the Respironics machines I have ever owned..from the M series to the PR S1 50 series and the 60 series all had the brick...and the DreamStation also has the brick.chunkyfrog wrote: ↑Sat Apr 21, 2018 5:29 pmI thought Respironics machines were the same--no brick.

ResMed added the brick with the S9 I think...I never had the S8.
I think that the OP in this thread wants a smaller brick or to do away with the brick and I don't think that is possible.
The connection from the brick end of things to the machine...I bet Respironics made it so that nothing but their bricks and connectors will work.

Proprietary, yes, I believe it.
I have always been impressed with the power configuration on my Intellipap--
It looks like a standard plug. Too bad it's not more popular.
