Had to use three extension cords

[Goofproof]

If I have to put them "just in case", I won't be able to travel, 'cause I only have bags. Will 3 extension cords fit in a bag? Thanks for helping.

The 100 FT 16 gauge cords are a little big, might have toget a bigger bag for three of them. Jim

But if you want to hook up your XPAP from the other end of the football field, what can you do!

Nope, just bragging about his travels.

Yep. He's a regular at travel-bragging.

It would be nice to have those people from other countries he visits if they are OK with him visiting! Now that would be interesting. Jim

Show off!

Get off your high horse! Traveling (especially internationally) is one of the biggest challenges to CPAP users. My point is merely to warn everybody when I encounter a situation that might present difficulties for others.

FALSE! The bigger challenge is to get your brain to allow you to make XPAP treatment work, and not give up! Jim

I thought his Point was to keep his hat from blowing off in a foreign country!

I no longer go to football fields, 'cause of the "Knee Down" thing. Shoulda had a extension cord in the puddle where the knee went down.

Well, now we know who you are.

I don't know, but the length of my extension cord always seem to be a lil longer than needed...just sayin

Three cords in my luggage---I can imagine the reaction at the x-ray scanner.
We had an airport security guard totally freak out over a dozen bars of chocolate.
(they are opaque to x-rays--who knew?)
On the same trip, we discovered that alarms go off when the x-ray scans a huge quartz crystal.
The bullfrog's humor was NO help at all.

So True, and a leaking Gas Pump. Jim

Mmmmm... Patriot? With a lot of extension cords. You'd be right.

[palerider]

... and a whole-house generator.

Does that thing have wheels, or is it a carryon?

I once had a TSA pat-down over a bag of pistachio nuts. I have TSA Pre-check so usually just sail thru. Not all small airports honor it so you have to do the whole pain in the butt security crap. This day they insisted that everyone remove all their food from their carry-ons. Wth? They swabbed all the wrappers and mine caused alarms. Unopened. I actually got frisked, one & only time.

Moral of the story: don't bring multiple extension cords AND pistachio nuts AND chocolate bars on the same trip.

[D.H.]

Nobody ever questioned the extension cords.

BTW, I put one in the check-in luggage, another in the CPAP bag, and the last one in the other carry-on bag.

Spreading them out will eventually raise red flags.
Do wear clean underwear!

I don't think that there's any cross-checking of carry-on bags and check-in bags. They are screened separately.
