Re: how did you pick your avatar?

Being that I am an avid drag racer I found an pic of an old 60's style drag mask. I figured it would be better than a pic of me with my nasal mask on.

Re: Need advice with battery hookup

Resmed had also said they would have it out by this camping season too, that by the way has passed.

I have a modified sinewave converter in my motorhome with two deep cycle kirklands that work like a hot damn. I use my humidifier in passover though.

Re: I ran my S9 dry.

Dang I let my humidifier go dry then refilled it. I had the weirdest taste in my mouth after refilling. After some time I realized what the problem was. During the summer I have been using my humidy in pass over mode and from reading threads on this forum had begun using cold bottled water from the ...

Re: Poll: How Prepared Are You Regarding A Cpap Backup Plan

The cpap back up plan is called a couch. She don't like the snoring? then she can hit the couch, lol. Really if something was to go sideways with the cpap I'm sure a few nights without it won't kill me. The couch was my place of rest for 12 years. Don't get me wrong, cpap has changed my life but OMG...

Re: FORUM CATEGORIES - (Just hear me out…)

The way some of the threads here get jacked, why the hell bother to catagorize them. I belong to alot of forums that are catagorized and must say that I enjoy this one the way it is. Sure it would make it easier for a newbie to navigate but then again that may be a form of spoon feeding. The search ...

I like its features and the fact that I can take control of my own therapy. You will find everything you need to analyze the dat...
