M-Series Respironics

Post by shastaron » Sun Feb 13, 2011 1:29 pm

Is there a direct replacement for the Respironics M-Series? It looks like it is discontinued. Or does someone know where there are some still available? I have had mine for 2 1/2 years and was hoping to make it my spare/travel unit and get a new one for the house.

The Respironics (Phillips) PR System One machines are the next in line after the M Series. Many different models. Take a look at our host cpap.com list of machines to see what they are.

I was in the same boat. I found out that my insurance would buy me a new machine, and I tried to get another M-series AFLEX (which I just loved) so I could keep the old one for backup and travel, but they would only give me a PR System One.

I was prepared to hate the system one, but after a brief try, I found that I like it better in almost all respects. (I miss the blue lights. I'm one of the very few that liked the blue Martian Death Lights on the M-series.)

I still use the M-series for travel, and it's just fine. That said, I prefer the newer sys one.

Hope this is useful info - -
