Re: Yet another camping question

Thanks for all the info. I still don't know what I'm going to do, but from what you all are saying, it looks like it will have to be a battery and connector. As for the inverter- since my machine is resmed, I think I have to use the one I linked to. If I turn off the humidifier and just add water to...

Re: Please tell me it's going to be OK!

I just want to add another vote for it's going to be ok/ I'm glad your first night was ok. CPAP was the best thing I have ever done for my health. I had no idea how tired I always was, and now if I go without my machine I can't believe that I ever was able to function at all before. Just keep trying...

Re: Yet another camping question

I looks to me that the two battery options I linked to are designed to provide long-term output. The black and decker one says it can power gps and game systems. So doesn't that mean it works just like a re-chargeable wall socket, and not like a car jump-start unit? I'm so confused. Thanks for the d...

Yet another camping question

I have spent many hours reading about the different battery power options for camping, and Im still a little confused, but I think I have some ideas, and want your advice. I use ResMed Escape 2 @15 with a humidifier. I will obviously only be using the humidifier as pass-over while camping, and will ...

Starting to Believe

I have been having trouble with getting my mask adjusted right (comfort gel full face) and trouble getting used to sleeping positions with the mask on (I used to sleep on my face). Last night I couldn't make it work, and apparrently didn't have it on right most of the night. There must have been lea...

Re: Newbie needs mask help

Thanks for the heads up! I will try it. I also found info on the respironics site that is making me want to see if lowering the forehead support will help me some.

Newbie needs mask help

Thank you all for being here. I've been reading for a little over a week and just joined today, so please forgive me if I mess this up. I haven't followed up with the doc to get all my info yet, but the Respiratory Therapist who brought out my CPAP said I have severe sleep apnea. I use a ResMed S8 E...
