Gee, are they stamped with expiration dates?

:D I saw a thread about keeping bugs out of your CPAP machine. I saw a lot of smart ass remarks up there too. Lol I actually had that nervous thought before I got my CPAP machine a few weeks ago because we have a ton of earwigs on the property this year for some reason. I actually found a couple of ...

Thanks.

And to be honest I don’t have access to the New York Times article to have found the pup med.

I still greatly appreciate your input.

I guess I am just naturally suspicious of those who are set to make a buck on research.

You are right about capitalism but still it should be basically the first thing you read, not scribbled at the bottom. I wouldn't have noticed the conflict of interest were it not for the previous poster.

Ugh

It’s unfortunate when such blatent conflicts of interest are present. Most folks don’t notice that sort of info.

My provider had mine set at 4 for 15m. I felt like I was gasping for air. I switched it to 5 min. Not sure if I should have done that but I like it much better. I settle down pretty quickly.

I dont recall where I was reading but I think the Tungsten ones produce the right wavelength? This particular source has a chart but to be honest, I am not sure if there is an overlap. https://www.herschel-infrared.co.uk/how-do-infrared-heaters-work/types-of-infrared-heat/ You seem much more knowleg...

So Granny- I should get out the infrared space heaters this winter?

Interesting.

I wear SPF hoodies and hats and hate sunscreen.

I may need to start a med that means photosensitivity. But here is to hoping the cpap delays that need.

I don’t think I will be able to convince our local power company to get a $6000 battery. :-) It’s a nice thought though. It helps to be old and decrepit. :) Well… at leayou have THAT going for you. :lol: jk Pugsy- Thanks! I know you say big whoop but part of the reason I am asking in the first plac...

Thanks to all of you for the input. I have seen other posters talking about these little portable CPAP machines which I can’t afford right now. What I am wondering is there any adapters out there to make it work more efficiently or allow you to attach it via USB-a or Usb-c? This thing is supposed to...

wow!

this sounds amazing!

Thanks. We have jcpl here. Might be worth looking into. After digging around some more I was half tempted to ask the administrator to remove my post because I saw there was a whole other thread along these lines. I really want to apologize. If you would please private message me whenever you learn. ...

My ultimate goal is to invest in a nice GoalZero set with solar hookup.

A bit pricey but probably worth it.
