In my opinion, the bigger question should be: "Do you have at least one spare/backup machine?" (for the nights when your primary machine fails or has a problem)


Den

.
(5) REMstar Autos w/C-Flex & (6) REMstar Pro 2 CPAPs w/C-Flex - Pressure Setting = 14 cm.
"Passover" Humidification - ResMed Ultra Mirage FF - Encore Pro w/Card Reader & MyEncore software - Chiroflow pillow

I've used the same machine since 2008. It stopped counting hours at 19,999. I didn't notice that it had stopped counting until March 2017.
