a deep cycle marine battery My battery shop told me to get an equivalent mobility battery. Mobility batteries are lighter in weight. Marine batteries have heavier reinforcement to withstand the beating boats take. Interesting. I imagine mobility batteries are also more expensive than marine batteri...

It's been more than 20 years!

There's no way I'll ever get used to the noise especially mask noise from newer masks. That's the point. My DME said it's physics. The smaller the mask, the more noise. Us light sleepers continue to be disadvantaged.

I'm using legacy Resmed masks such as Mirage Activa and Activa LT. The former has been discontinued but I purchased replacement parts when still available. I worry the same will happen soon with the LT. I tried all the current nasal masks and pillows out there. None are suitable. Sometimes the fit i...

I'm currently using a resmed 10 for home and have an airmini for travel if needed, big deep cycle marine battery for home outages with battery tender and the resmed dc converter. I also have a now discontinued Medistron 24 + which I can get a few nights of airmini usage from. I have cables to use t...

Interesting article .

But I don't have an ice machine. I just buy a huge jug of demineralized purified water from Costco and boil the water (sometimes).

Today I received a marketing email from CPAP.com with this very caption. How unbelievable. I suppose this is the current trend these day. Just look at the AirSense 11 and it's really tiny filter that has a very poor efficiency rating, even their ultra fine filter is small and has a poor efficiency r...

I'm presently in Canada. Resmed CPAPs such as the ResMed AirSense™ 10 AutoSet™ CPAP Machine with HumidAir™ Heated Humidifier are currently being sold at CPAP.com for $1245 USD whilst in Canada at many online CPAP stores, the same CPAP is selling as low as $1215 Canadian. Of course, availability may ...

Respironics seems to be getting away with. My question: How the eff is this OK? I wonder s how far DEEP does this go? Does it stop with Respironics or are other manufacturers doing something similar? What is the normal lifespan of the foam inside our machines before they are deemed toxic? Who tests...

I saw that video of his regarding Respironics.

No Youtube influencer creates a video on the fly without a rehearsal. I don't believe "CPAP reviews" is any different. I reviewed his comments section and for the most part, critical comments are absent. I suspect he deletes them from his channel.

Social media "influencers" are all the rage these days. Many people obtain their "news" and "facts" from these people without questioning the validity et al. Most of the time these influencers use a variety of tactics including sensationalistic captions, hyperbole, and expressions. One such person g...

While you certainly can be ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE , and knowingly break something and abuse Costco's generous return policy, I hope you'll at least feel bad about yourself for doing so. Perhaps if I'd described the DC converter as "the appropriate 12 volt adapter cord for your machine" you'd have been...

Because you're going to waste a lot (as much as half) of the battery capacity in the inverter, they tend to be quite inefficient compared to the DC/DC converter. Thanks for that info. I had no idea. However, the link you provided appears to show the exact same power adapter as I currently use for t...

The first thing you will need is the correct 12V cable for your cpap. The Re$med cable converts 12V to 24V for use by the re$med cpap. So you will need to know the make and model of your cpap when ordering the cable. If in doubt call them to ask.... https://www.cpap.com/plp/cpap-power-cords/ZT0zMTE...

Hi. Thanks for the replies. I have two machines.Airsense 10 and old Respironics Remstar Pro Legacy I can use either but I predominately use Resmed's Air Sense 10 and the pressure goes up to 12. And yes, I would like to use a 150 watt DC adapter. @ChicagoGranny, what do you suggest if not a car batte...

There's a planned power outage in my apartment in the near future. I was wondering if using a regular vehicle battery like you buy at Costco and attaching a DC adapter for several hours of use would work or would the power requirements of the CPAP be too much and drain the battery?
