I just received my new Airsense 10 Auto today. I'm excited to use it tonight. It's a big step up from my S8.

When I read the title of this thread my first reaction was Where does he live? Texas? Oh My is it snowing in Texas...

Enjoy your new machine.

First night was just...... O.K.

I had the ramp off like I did with my S8. My pressure while trying to fall asleep was not changing making it difficult to go to sleep. I ended up going into the clinical menu and raising the lowest setting. This worked out a little better. I need to go to walmart and buy a SD reader to plug into my Mac so I can see my data on SleepyHead.

Also the smart start did not work too well. It started ok but when I woke up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom....it never shut off.

The humidifier was good. I need to raise the settings cause it was not enough... So that will just take some time to get the right setting.

My AHI was around 5 which was pretty much what it was with my S8.
