CPAP To Go travel case

Post by johncuse48 » Thu Jan 15, 2009 7:58 pm

I recently came back from a trip. First time I had to travel with my CPAP equipment ( felt like a roadie, with all the stuff I had to bring, LOL) The case I have is only big enough for the REMstar Plus machine. Do they sell larger cases to hold the tubing and mask assembly?

Yes. The case I was given with my order from cpap.com has an expandable front pocket which will accomodate most hoses and masks. Check it out.

The Respironics case that I have would carry two machines. Same for my ResMed machine. Mostly, I have heard people complain about the bags being too big, not too small.

I just took my first trip with my BiPAP Auto SV. I know what you mean about "all the stuff!"

I had three pillows -- two side sleepers and one regular for between my knees stuffed in a small carry-on suitcase, along with my Hozer hose manager (which comes with its own carrying bag). I also tossed the Squid surge suppresser and outlet multiplier in that suitcase, along with a small triple LED reading light which clips nicely to the Hozer, since hotels never have decent reading lights.

Then I had the Respironics bag into which I put the humidifier and the BiPAP on one side. The hose and the electrical cords went in the other side. My mask and accoutrements went in their own bag which tucked in an expansion pouch on the back of the bag. There was even room in there for my "brandy keg" chin support.

Looks like Respironics has learned a thing or three since developing the Plus...
