Boylston, The directions and video for the MSeries humidifier say to be careful when putting the filled chamber back inside the machine or water could spill inside the device. In your experience, does it seem like it would be easy for that to happen? I haven't had any sloshing/spilling fears yet. I...

There probably needs to be a new CPAP-internet acronym: YFSMV Your Face Shape May Vary... I have had almost no problems adjusting to the F&P 431 full face mask. I love the fact that it's comfortable on my nose and goes under my chin. I also seem to have no issues side-sleeping with it; in fact, it l...

if you have the HomeCare Provider setup manual for your machine, you should be able to toggle the backlight LCD on/off. That is a programmable feature on all the older style Remstars had the backlight LCD. I don't have the manual, but I know the right keypress command to get into the "unlocked" men...

Four days now...

Four days into my CPAP therapy, and I seem to be doing great! Not really having any issues going to sleep, I feel good in the mornings, and I am not waking up much to wrestle with the equipment. However, I have woken up 1-2 times and it felt like I was not getting the full pressure. Somewhat of an "...

Newbie to CPAP, but my first unit is the M-Series w/ humidifier and I happen to be on the road traveling now... The travel bag was super easy to deal with through airports and traveling. I brought the whole humidifer+CPAP combo, and my mask/hose fit in the outside part of the bag. I didn't even deta...

After lugging my REMstar Pro 2 machine with me on trips, I punted and bought a small, light 420G machine, which has been fine. However, the new small, light M series machines have C-Flex and smartcard capability, which is missing from the 420G. Also, one machine will suffice for home and travel. We...

Brand new user here, as in the M-series is in the trunk of my car and my first night of usage will be tonight.... however, I was in the sleep lab picking up my CPAP less than 2 hours after the Respironics rep had been through to talk to folks about the new line. Seems like the big deal is purely for...
