Display on Respironics M Series

Post by AJinDuncan » Wed Oct 21, 2009 12:56 pm

Why didn't they put an LED light or somesort of light on it? Its pretty stupid seeming as how it is a device that you use during the night

The Sleep Drs and DME folks aren't in your bedroom at night when you are sleeping (in the dark), so there was no need for Respironics to provide a backlit option for them to read the LCD at night. Respironics considers their customers to be the Drs and DMEs - you and what you need/want doesn't count.
