Re: Coverage for partial power outage

I *think* I know what the answer will be on this, but checking just in case. I have plans in the near future to go to a country that is know for frequent power outages. I do anticipate that at times we would have power to charge a battery, and my hope is that at night we would have power some of th...

Re: reliable approved sources

www.sleepquest.com has been really great for me. They started as a local Bay Area CPAP provider but now ship all over the country. Stanford referred people to them so they gave people a pretty high level of service, especially getting the mask right.

AirSense 10 Autoset

Has Resmed stopped making the AirSense 10 Autoset? If I buy one new has it been sitting in a warehouse for a couple of years or is it refurbished?

Airline Travel With CPAP

I haven’t flown for a while with my CPAP. In general, how are we supposed to prepare to go through security with it? Can I leave it in the bag and put the bag in the tray? Do they like it out of the CPAP bag and in those trays by itself or can I put it on top of the bag in the tray? I hate the thoug...

Re: DME supplier recommendations

I have always found Sleepquest to be responsive and they have an online store. Their insurance contracts are below.

Resmed Power Supply

I recently bought a new Resmed Airsense 10 (card to cloud version). I still have a couple of power supplies from older Airsense 10s. One is from about 2 years ago and one from a couple of years before that. Will both of those older power supplies work with my new CPAP (was hoping to have a backup)?

Re: international trip - US Custom clearance

Then, now I wonder if I need to get any permission from US gov. in advance to bring back CPAP to US. Does anybody know? I went through researching this process when I went to Africa and returned to US a few years ago. I did a lot of research since I was going to be there for a good amount of time a...

Re: CPAP & Power in Canada

“The electric is the same, the telephone jacks are the same, your cell phone will word there (but watch out for roaming charges). You can use a US extension cord and/or surge protector there. Conversely, if you buy anything that plugs in there, you can bring it home and use it in the U.S.” Thanks fo...

CPAP & Power in Canada

Quick questions regarding CPAP and power in Canada vs. U.S. 1. Is power the same in Canada as in the U.S. (120V and 60HZ)? 2. Is it the same electrical outlet or is an adapter needed when traveling there from the U.S.? I know current CPAPs can handle various voltages but I am wondering if I need a d...
