Respironics Dreamstation on a Battery
Hey all, I am taking a motorcycle trip to the Sturgis motorcycle rally this year where I will be camping. This led me to exploring options for how to power my CPAP, and I found CapnLoki's awesome post here about power consumption . I ended up purchasing a 12v plug and a 222wh Suaoki lithium ion batt...

Re: New Battery and Amp-Hour Data
Welp, I bit the bullet and bought the battery. It came yesterday, and I used it overnight with great success. I pulled off the humidifier and ran just the CPAP on 12 volts. Dreammapper says I had 90% pressure at 8.5. The battery has 5 lights to indicate it's charge, and when I woke up after 7.5 hour...

Re: New Battery and Amp-Hour Data
Good idea, and that's my plan. My camping trip isn't until August so I'll have some time to mess with it at home.

Re: New Battery and Amp-Hour Data
Sorry guys, I'm new to this math. So, if I charged the device everyday on the motorcycle do you think the 222wh battery would work with no humidifier or heated tube? Since your pump will use only about 50-60 watt-hours a night, it should cover 2-3 nights easily without recharge. If you can hook it ...

Re: New Battery and Amp-Hour Data
Thanks for your detailed reply to my, sadly, poorly detailed question. I have a Philips Respironics Dreamstation (not the Go version), and I plan to not use the humidifier. The bike is a Harley Ultra Classic with a lead acid battery. You've given me much to consider here. Thanks! I haven't done a d...

Re: New Battery and Amp-Hour Data
I know this is a very old post, but it's awesome information. My question is about the amp hour usage. Am I reading this correctly to say that the first test used 4 amp hours total for 8 hours? My motorcycle battery is 30 amp hours so that would mean I'd be ok using that to power my CPAP for a coup...

Re: Choosing a Battery
I use a lithium battery in my kayak. Some awesome developments for campiing,kayaking, airplaning. My airline American let me take a 222 wh battery, with preauthorization (to use during the flight). https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06ZXYVG4G/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 3 nights no h...
