Hate to hear that.

Side, stomach, or recliner sleeping might help a little.

Gee, makes me glad I have 6 backup machines and 4 battery backups.

My S8 is still running with about 14,000 hours on it.

I actually only acquired 1 CPAP as a "backup." The others just sort of happened over the years in my journey of "Apneac's Progress." 1 battery was bought as a CPAP backup and the others also sort of happened.

If you're handy open it up and see what's wrong.

the loud pop is probably a capacitor the ruptured on the power supply board.

Be sure to unplug the unit before opening the case. But you may be stuck there.
Spare parts are getting harder and harder to find.

Now you know why some of us have backup machines.
Depending on who your source is for the A10, it might be more than "a few" days.

Sorry to hear about your "loss".

So does that mean we can sleep over in an emergency?
