I too have a m series Respironics cpap. I bought a deep cycle boat battery and the appropiate cords, built a carry box and use that. It lasted 5-1/2 nights before I had to charge it with the generator. Might last a little longer in warmer weather. I like to winter camp in the North East. Total cost was about $100.00.
