Re: AirCurve 10 vauto setup

Re: Camping in a Trailer and Boon Docking
Maybe start with battery size and type (Amp hours), what you are running on the battery, ECT! Ok I visited the trailer and it has a Deka Marine Master Deep Cycle/Starting. I took a pic of the specs because it hard to see where its installed and I think I'm missing the top line. I now see on my pic ...

Device that keeps popping up on youtube thats calls itself a CPAP device but isn't.
Ok I've gotten ads on youtube for some "new invention" that eludes to the idea that its some sort of CPAP like device but it just looks like a nasal pillow with nothing attached to it.
