Could you possibly give the OP an example of how he is saving money? I gave an example of how I could/did save money. Did you not understand the math? OP is a big boy and needs to do his own math. Math was your idea. What you pay 2024: $174.70 each month (or higher depending on your income). The am...

you know if you do the math you might see how it saves money. Could you possibly give the OP an example of how he is saving money? my Medicare it would cost me well north of 300 bucks a month because I got Medicare prior to age 65. Do the math on that for me. How does this matter to the OP? fwiw - ...

I nee d my old unit returned to its provider and the new unit issued. Ask how much for that unit, just for giggles. Or buy from cpap.com When I told my plan about all this they said that I pretty much have to sign whatever the provider asks for. And you call this an Advantage? You know, I am thinki...

I'm still waiting for the ResMed air curve 11.

You could have had an AC 10 by now.

I'll be seated in the aisle.

I would be looking for a window seat. Better than that if there is a business section on this plane I would try getting a window seat in the business section - there is norm much more room and more quiet - not many screaming kids.

I'd be tempted to put the thing in the dishwasher To future readers - Never disassemble or put anything in a dishwasher if you don't have a spare. AND you should have spares of each piece/part of your system you need to sleep. IF not you may be the one who has a need on a long holiday weekend and u...

that's interesting that it's in the air, Which is why I never recommend air drying. You never know what is in someone's air or if they just had a brush fire or toxic train derailment. Plus the things people are drying only get wet when used. Should we only ever use distilled water even for rinsing?...

Serratia marcescens is floating in the room air but needs minerals to feed on. The minerals come from using or even rinsing with tap water. It is not necessary to wipe or otherwise dry the *water* tub or hose both will get wet again with use. I never dry mine. Take a look at the overflow hole in the...

You don't need a backup?

Sleep Dr said the sleep studies done 15 years ago (when originally diagnosed) did not have me off the cpap for 2 full hours (AHI 91 and so they put me on a cpap at the 60-90 minute mark). I don't believe this is true. Speak directly with Medicare to determine. I had a PSG in 2004 and had to dx 2hrs...

Assuming you know how to set the pressures.
I'm curious why you feel you the need to set the date & time?

i think they might be pieces of the filter breaking off, there are also fibres from the filter sticking through the grill of the filter doorway, so I want to replace the filter to be safe. I'm thinking you have the filter in backwards. When you get new filters, note the two sides are different and ...

Maybe my tap water is extra special good... I've had no problems... even used it as bong water (!) for many years,

Did you clean your bong every week too? Then leave it to air dry? Does the bong qualify as a bilevel too?

While auto start can be the problem so can high leaks or low power. Are you by chance using a battery?
Do you have the right power plug for the country?

As mentioned it is always a good idea to use for a couple weeks at home to work out any bugs and to know IF the pressures for you.

Recently upgraded to Dreamstation 2 and unfortunately the battery isn't compatible with my new machine. You don't say why it isn't compatible? Could it be it needs a different power cord? https://www.google.com/search?q=freedom+cpap+battery+dreamstation+2&sca_esv=b7c0b9c8093215b7&sca_upv=1&ei=8A4jZ...
