Oh -- is there reason to believe the S9 won't be easy to take apart and pack?

Okay, newbie voice here. I like this. A few points: 1. It's funny; when my neurologist was first telling me about the treatment options for my OSA, he pointed to two posters on his wall, one of ResMed CPAP (S8) machines and one of ResMed masks. I (kid) you not -- my immediate comment was, "Wow, can'...

nghy, what do you base these assertions on? Seems like AC inverters waste about 10% of the power, which I find an acceptable tradeoff, given Resmed DC adapter costs $79 and adds another item to bring. Resmed documentation linked above says it is fine to use a modified sine wave inverter for the flow...

Good stuff, bearded, harry and 5aces. Interesting, 5, that you found out there is a lot of headroom in the ResMed table (or that these units' batteries are good for more Ah than they're rated for. Maybe they build in extra so they exceed spec when they are new and then meet spec when they're a littl...

JohnB: Thank you so much for all of the great information. The link to the ResMed battery guide was particularly excellent. My pressure is 8, so that looks like .94 amps. It says 11Ah battery will run it, including a 50% margin of safety. You are quite right that it will need to be recharged every d...

Good question, cFlame. I just updated my equipment in my profile. So you can see that at home I use the heated humidifier. I would be willing not to use it while camping (figuring that outdoors humidity will be pretty even high without it), if that would enable me to use the portable power pack. Tha...

Hi all: I have ResMed S8 Elite II CPAP. Going camping. Any reason I can't just plug the regular AC cord into the AC socket on this unit? http://www.amazon.com/Duracell-DPP-300EP-Powerpack-300-watt-Compressor/dp/B000TKBLHM/ref=pd_sbs_auto_7 Have read for a few hours without finding this answer, so th...

Hi there -- You have my empathy, because I know firsthand that it is hard to get CPAP going right for you, and it is hard to be patient at the beginning. I'm still in the beginning, too, about two months of therapy under my belt. I feel I am sleeping better, but I also feel I could be sleeping much ...
