2GB SD cards are readily available

I just got an email from Amazon and they showed a number of suppliers with 2GB SD (not SDHC) cards that would work just fine in CPAP's like my S9 Auto Set for between $5 and $10. I've seen a lot comments on this and other boards that they are getting hard to find in that size.

Re: How to open Resmed S9 to perform repair?

JB Weld has gotten me out of a lot of tight spots, broken tabs on a $200 headlight assembly, cracked panel under car dash, it might just work for this but could you tack it in place with jell Super Glue while the JB Weld dries?

S9 Auto Set and Bacteria Filter

I notice many suppliers offer an after market bacteria filter to be installed inline after the machine to add an extra layer of filtration after the air passes through the machine. What do you think,will this type of filter possibly affect the operation of the AutoSet feature?

Re: Any link between Apnea and atrial fibrillation

I treat my A-Fib with beta blockers that slow my heart beat, other medications that regulate the A-Fib didn't work consistently and cardio version was ruled out because I frequently slip into and out of A-Fib. I now am in A-fib normally but the beta blockers slow my rapid heart beat and I live with ...

I am on medication, but my reason for my post was to see if others who have the two conditions have experienced any improvement to the A-Fib with the addition of CPAP.

Re: Eliminating tobacco odor - nasal pillows etc

I happen to own a ozone generator, putting the generator along with the item that is smelled up in a small confined room/ space and running it should do it. The one problem with using an ozone generator is that has a habit of breaking down foam, so don't over do it!

Re: Respironics 15 mm hose on ResMed S9 AutoSet

I've been in touch with a .com that lists this hose on their site, and they say that the Respironics slimline tubing will work on the S9 Resmed.

Respironics 15 mm hose on ResMed S9 AutoSet

Will Respironics 15mm Slim Line System One Performance Tubing fit and work on a S9 Autoset ResMed Machine? If it would the the price at less than 1/2 of the OEM hose is very attractive!

Re: What Type of SD Card do I need for my ResMed S9 AutoSet

This topic had a familiar ring to it, so I did a search on SDHC. I found a post that I did, stating that I tried using an 8 gig SDHC card as a test, and I gave up on it after 3 minutes of the S9 trying to format it. I also saw a post where someone said an SDHC won't work, and one that said it will....

I inherited a ResMed S9 Auto Set and a H5i Humidifier and the SD card is missing, can I use a common SDHC card like I use in my camera? What size 4G, 8G, or 16G would be best?
