Re: Camping without amenities (electricity)
Well I just got back from Campobello Island using my machine plugged into my serious marine battery for 3 days. Everything worked just as it should and I really slept well. I am very pleased.

Re: Full time RV with CPAP
I bought this cord to run the cpap off the battery....24 volt machine on a 12 volt battery. IMO it is more efficient to go DC to DC as opposed to DC to AC to DC.

Re: Full time RV with CPAP
Why not just plug your cpap machine into the RV's "house battery" by getting a cord for the cigarette lighter.....DC to DC?

Re: Camping.
Shore power is what we all plug into while camping if we have it. If I have that, I will just plug my machine into that source of power.
