Suggested Battery for flying with Resmed CPAP

Post by rbishop » Mon Sep 21, 2015 5:47 pm

I have a bunch of 7-9 hour international flights coming up in the next year. I'm looking for the smallest battery solution that can provide at least 4-5 hours with the humidifier on. Is the $700+ Resmed Power station II really my only option here? That's nearly as expensive as a new CPAP machine.

I have both the S9 Autoset and Airsense 10 Autoset if one is more energy efficient.

My S9 kept turning off when trying to use the power outlet on Air Canada. It worked without the humidifier, which I couldn't sleep with.

Some planes have plug in capabilities...check with the airline when you make your reservations.
