Travel adapter or converter?

Post by annief64 » Thu Apr 13, 2023 1:05 pm

Hi guys! Glad to be here. I recently bought in Cpap.com the Resmed Air Mini. I’m planning to travel to Europe and I’m a little confused with the type of stuff I need to purchase to protect my Air Mini in a different electrical environment. If the gadget is dual voltage I would only need an adapter. If not, a converter. Do anyone knows if the Air Mini is dual voltage or should I need a converter to protect it?
Thanks,
Annie

More than likely it is ready to go. Look on your power adapter for an Input section like the one below. If it says 100-240v and 50-60 Hz it will be able to handle anything Europe can throw at it. You'll just need adapters to get your American-style plug to fit into the local outlets.

I have traveled to Europe multiple times with my AirMini, most recently in Jan to Rome and Feb to Athens. I just use a travel adapter, from Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GV ... UTF8&psc=1 This particular one is 4 years old and no longer available but there are newer models. Hubby has a blue one (so we can tell them apart :lol: ) for his AirSense. He travels with his home machine. I keep the adapter in the lunchbox I carry the AirMini in, along with everything else I need (except Halos), so I can just grab & go!
