Re: Primitive camping, pilot battery w/solar panel

The Medistrom panel is 50W so I thought 60 might be enough, the 100W are heavier. I am wary of the Medistrom panel since I cannot find reviews on it and not many places sell it. Not many caves on the cayes we will be on or the boats in the preserve. :wink:

Primitive camping, pilot battery w/solar panel

Hi all, I'm hoping someone would not mind checking my tentative setup for camping on some cayes in Belize. I will use a Z2 travel machine running from a Medstrom pilot 12 lite and may need to use it about 2 weeks. I wish to charge it using a 60W folding solar panel with a cigarette lighter adapter a...

Re: I am nearly completely disabled. Is Apnea the culprit????

I had a few similar issues until I used my CPAP for a few months. I was getting lost so frequently I had to start using uber drivers. My liver and renal labs were high and my heart rate ran between 114 and 128 resting with a BP of 164/110. I was also "dreaming" at my desk and kept trying to type my ...

Re: Frustrating noises when breathing

I wear noise cancelling, in ear headphones while I sleep. I started wearing them to mask my husband's snoring, but they also completely mask any moving air sounds I get from my hose and mask.

Re: flashair card broadcasts only after power on/off my machine.

Thank you Krelvin, I got my husband to reconfigure the time and it works perfectly. I am still not doing well enough to not fear bricking something if I try it myself. Again, thank you so much.

flashair card broadcasts only after power on/off my machine.

Hi All, I am only one month into CPAP therapy and am doing well. I have setup my machine with a flashair card and am using FlashPap to access and download my data. My card only broadcasts for a few minutes after I unplug and replug my machine. Is there a way to set it up so that it will always be on...

Re: Off Topic -Anyone a Rock-hound, Gem, Sea Glass collector?.

I usually pick up interesting rocks when out and about. Some from vacation or specific trips and some just from walking near home. I have a big acrylic vase I drop them in. My mom and daughter do the same thing. No rhyme or reason for any of us. Just picking up rocks.
