Most of the machines are quiet and portable. Mine came in a travel bag; I have taken it on several short trips already. It really isn't that big of a deal. You can read up on the newer machines, masks, etc. on the host site of this forum. They have a lot of information.

Good luck with your upcoming sleep study.

Mine is totally silent and very portable. Most US insurance plans allow for a new machine after five years (Medicare guidelines). There are many posts here about battery solutions for camping.

My ResMed S9 is dead quiet.

Here's a link on battery power:
