I am looking for recommendations for a solar panel which will charge my two BPS C-100 batteries. Any recommendations? Please add some details around your likely usage patterns and where/time of year you will be using these batteries for your CPAPs. Also, what is the chemistry of these batteries, ar...

CPAP being used - ResMed AirSense 10 Geographic Location - San Francisco Bay Area, California, USA The ResMed AirSense 10 AutoSet machine died recently. It gave me just over 5 years of fantastic sleep. I need a new machine ASAP... but, the local "sleep doctor"/sleep center is such a rip-off, I cann...

Appears to be a lot of confusion with a second Philips recall of some refurbished machines with the press sometimes claiming these were CPAPs. Checked the actual FDA notification and these were all ventilators that were part of the recall. Bits of old foam were left in and there were adhesion probl...

After starting out with APAP for a couple of weeks (Resmed Autoset 11 with nasal pillows) as a total newbie, I realised I had only solved one half of the “good night’s sleep” equation as I continued to suffer with really bad nasal congestion. One week ago I got Septoplasty & Turbinectomy surgery to...

Yup, “Recertified”. Philips should not be sending out refurbished machines unless they have them literally sterilized and certified as such. In my case (with) leukemia), I’m incredibly immunosuppressed. I still have to wear N95 masks for Covid when going anywhere. Also, they’ve had problems with so...

How do you know if the DS1 replacements are refurb or new? Or are all DS1 remediation machines refurbs? I received a DS1 today to replace a System One machine. I am using it currently and like it other than the new machine smell. I like that my System One heated tubes plug into the DS1. Hopefully I...

I'm trying to make some of my money back on the Autoset 10. How much is the DS2 worth?? Saw one DS2 data point on a complaint posted about Second Wind CPAP where they recently offered $300 for a new in box DS2 and dropped the offer to $175 when they found it had been used for a few hours and so was...

Bump to top You may not realize that cpap.com is offering the same machine on sale regularly for $499 (got another email offer for this deal a few hours ago, promo code is "resupply23" for this price) with a full manufactures warranty, free shipping, etc. May be a challenge to sell your machine at ...

I honestly don't have much more info. I was just going to buy a used machine like hers and duplicate the same settings using the clinical mode. Since hers is on apap mode, I was going to set the same settings on the replacement machine. I found the same machine as hers locally used but the seller i...

My wife has a Resvent Ibreeze 20 set in apap mode. She has to return it to the company leasing it to her because she honestly is bad about keeping the mask on so she isn't using it as much as she should be. So we are going to purchase a replacement machine for her but I'm finding out that mainly cp...

With the consolidation in the industry that has recently occurred machines will likely cost a lot more What consolidation is that? Most of the manufacturers who were providing CPAP devices like Puritan Bennett (Goodknight 420) have withdrawn from the market since I started therapy 20+ years ago lea...

Good chance this is a scam. Have a look at the UCB Center for Human Sleep Science actual web site and web page for an actual trial at UCSF. They don't hesitate to identify who they are and who is running a legitimate trial. Also the link for those interested in participating in the trial goes to a u...

The Resmed battery guide posted above is a great resource to give you an idea of CPAP power draw with and without a humidifier. It nicely illustrates how power draw varies per therapy pressure and the humidification setting. Ballpark per this guide the typical machine and therapy settings will draw ...

Glad I requested new DS1 replacement for my DS1 machines as the DS2 was definitely redesigned to take cost out of manufacturing with almost all the operations via a touch screen instead of the easier to use knob and buttons on the DS1 (especially in the dark at night). How does one make this reques...

I already got a refurbished Dreamstation 1 from Philips and I have a Resmed Airsense 10 auto too. I also registered an old System One machine for the recall. Philips is asking if I want a complete replacement CPAP machine, or if I want $50 instead. Since I already have two machines is there any rea...
