Or, instead of the threaded hook, which will leave a hole, you can use the 3M hooks that have a sticky backing and is easily removed from walls. I have used that in a hotel,and on a cruise ship. I put a "scrunchie" on either end of a bungee-type key chain. Put the hose through one scrunchie, and hoo...

So, since this isn't something that can be changed by the user, and since the machines accommodate Daylight Savings Time automatically, there could be some problems when the dates for Daylight Savings Time change next year. From 1986 to 2006 DST has been the first Sunday in April to the last Sunday ...

Seems to me this would be an excellent reason to justify getting the software for your machine. With that you could prove compliance - that you are actually using the therapy - and also how well you are doing on it - such as AHI less than 5.0, etc.

Offerrocker, The Automatically Log Me In option worked for me for a while, but then stopped working. I don't know if it was one of the updates to the software on this forum, or a Microsoft security update that changed this for me. I am on other message boards where I do stay logged in, but they use ...

The Activa can be loud, but I found that if I route the hose up over my head (attached to a hook on the wall with a hair scrunchy) it is much quieter.

inacpapfog,

I think this is the posting you were referring to:
viewtopic.php?t=11467

It suggests using the swivel assembly for the Mirage Activa.

Actually, the first time I called about sizing for the Activa, I got the same "the sizer is always right" response. I called back two days later, got another person, who used my measurements to recommend the "standard" which works great for me.

Try calling back, hoping to get a different rep.

Of course, there will be an additional charge. Someone needs to pay for the additional staff, record keeping, etc. for these follow-ups. And I would much rather see those who are going to use it pay for it, than to raise prices on all products to cover that service, whether or not you use it. Its th...

I'd like to be a part of that. I think you will be fine as long as you ask for people to opt in, and not just use the list of people signed on to cpaptalk.com or who have placed an order with cpap.com.

I took my APAP with me on a cruise this past June. I brought a power strip with me, which was a good thing because the only available outlet was not next to the beds - it was above the desk. Before the cruise, I asked my travel agent if the ship could provide me with distilled water for the machine....

Bill, I agree with you. It is more an issue of timing, although you do want the equipment to arrive in one piece. The one time I flew in one of those really small planes, we carried our carry-on bags with us up to the plane, and handed them to the baggage handler who put them on the plane in front o...

Try PMing the site administrator. Could have been a mistake - a slip of the finger, etc. If not, I am sure they will explain their action to you.
