I took delivery of a Resmed AirSense 10 Auto from my DME this past week. Manufacture date was 2024 and came with '0' hours. When I had called the DME to check availability of the AS10 they said they had a good number of them in stock as well as the newer AS11's.

Can your current oximeter use rechargable batteries? The voltage is slightly lower than regular alkaline types, but if they could work it would definitely save some money. I couldn't find a downloadable manual for the CMS 50-BT Charger and 8 AAA batteries.... https://www.amazon.com/EBL-Rechargeable-...

Any new machines I have seen always have ZERO run hours. For sure I am going to check the run hours when the RT sets it up for the demo and instructional session. I already have an AS10 (bought it here a few years ago) so am familiar with getting into the menus. I did find some comments in a Reddit...

Just got off the phone with the DME confirming the order of the replacement CPAP. Yes, there is a 13 month 'rental' on the replacement, but unlike the initial CPAP I had, there is no usage compliance requirement. Monday the RT from the DME comes to the house to deliver and go over the new machine, a...

My initial CPAP that was provided by my DME and paid for by Medicare and supplemental insurance was on a 13 month rental after which time I owned it. My 5 year replacement CPAP is currently in process by my DME. Will this replacement also be subject to a 13 month rental period like the first one or ...

My method every few months.... Fill hose with warm water and a few drops of Dawn dish liquid. Slosh back and forth. Empty the hose of the sudsy water. Run cool tap water through an end of hose. Take hose outside and twirl out remaining water as Dog Slobber suggested. Hang outside in fresh air and su...

I assume you've tried unplugging the DS2 and then plugging it back in after a few minutes as suggested in the users manual(?)

Have you tried to contact the 'Care Provider'? This is what Google came up with.....

I got my original DreamStation 1 in 03/2020. The recall replaced the DS1 with a DreamStation 2 in 10/2021. My DME recently sent me an email to start the 5 year replacement process which I assume would be for 03/2026 (I'll be ignoring the email until the actual replacement date nears). If I still had...

MyIdaho.. To enter/access the 'Clinician' menu and settings are you using the button presses shown in the image below? Doing this should display two gears and 'Settings' '>'. From there you should be able to see the menu items such as Options/'Essentials where you could change Essentials to 'Plus' w...

I was curious about the 'Essentials' menu selection and also if my own AS10 Auto had a setting for a filter. Evidently the 'Essentials' selection appears only to affect the 'Patient' menu options and not the 'Clinician' menu items. The 'ON' setting of 'Essential' gives the patient basic settings, wh...

Not sure if enabling the "Essentials" to 'Plus' in the "Options" menu will get you into the "Accessories" menu, but worth a try.

Having the filter attached to the mask may be a bit annoying. Possibly having a length of tube between the mask and the filter might help. I don't have a filter, but do use a Sleepweaver Featherwieght tube as an extension to a Resmed Climateline tube which is very flexible compared to the Resmed tub...

2nd the suggestion for Amazon. That's where I purchased the TENS pads.

Get a hanger/hook so the hose is routed behind the bed headboard and overhead. This make the rear hose connection workable and less likely you'd ever pull the machine off the nightstand. I actually turned my DS2 around so the hose exited to the rear of the nightstand to use the hanger. The turned ar...

I had the DS1 which was replaced with a DS2. I also have an AS10 as a backup machine which I use occasionally. I have three profiles in OSCAR. The old DS1 is gone, but it's good to have the old data for reference.
