I think I actually may be in between an L and M - will keep tinkering till I figure it out.
IMHO Larger pillows are not only easier to seal but provide more air flow.

The memory card and Oscar both work in my 11, thus I know it’s a problem with the machine.
Have you checked all the connections in the power cord and make sure its pressed into the cpap?
Is it possible to try a different wall outlet?

The machine just turns on and off constantly.
With the info given I have to guess low voltage.

Re: Freedom Battery Issue for ResMed 11

A few days ago we had a power outage and I went to use the battery, but of course the power connector for the ResMed 11 is different. This is one of the many reasons I always advise to just get a Resmed 10 replacement. After all the supplies and accessories you already have fit the 10. Most here se...

Re: Frustrated with the BiPap machine

I think that the doctors are just into it for the money Many sleep docs are in it just for the money. IF you let us know where you are someone may be able to point you to a good one. the BiPap machine is like a torture instrument, but I was also told by the ears, nose, and throat doctor that I migh...

Re: Best pillow for side sleeper

That small pillow between the knees is important.
I've been known to use a knee pillow to lay my head on.
It fills the space between my head and the mattress to keep my neck and spine straight. And it's small enuff the mask can hang off the end of the pillow.

Re: Battery recommendation?

Whatever you decide on you should try at home for several weeks before leaving to work out any problems.

I definitely want pass-through functionality.
iiwm I wouldn't trust pass-through any place that serves the power in spurts. But then I use DC power at home too.

Good Luck

I keep getting woken up a couple of times a night by air blasting out of the mask around my nose,
I guess that is the difference between a BiPap and a bilevel.

It's not a device--it is a function of some backup batteries
A link to this backup battery type would be helpful.

Re: Battery recommendation?

2) Do I want pass-through functionality? With pass-through functionality, your battery will pass AC wall power directly to your bipap machine and not use any battery power as long as power is up. If there is a power outage, the battery will immediately switch to powering your bipap from the battery...

Re: Battery recommendation?

I know that I must have one that is TSA-approved, and obviously weight and runtime are important. I encourage you to speak directly with your airline and find out what restrictions they have. Then spend some time searching and reading this forum for similar situations. https://www.cpaptalk.com/sear...

I just learned of the fact that my machine would have a measurement of an event of apnea.
Where did you get the 15.8 number from? If not from the cpap screen?
