The highest total hours

Post by AndresLuna » Mon Aug 28, 2023 7:29 am

Could you please share the highest total hours of use you've recorded on a single CPAP machine before it ceased functioning, along with the specific model of the machine? Thanks in advance (TIA).

Why don't you post the name of your machine and ask about that?

The Resmed machines have a notice that pops up on the screen at about 21,000 hours. The message indicates that you have exceeded the normal life. That number of hours is about 8 years of service.

At some point, everything fails--and it is most likely to do so when it is least convenient.

You know people don't like to answer questions when they don't know for what purpose the information will be used?

There seems to be some kind of competition going on--
Whose machine has the most hours,
Which mask cushion has been used the longest,
Who can find the cheapest off-brand filters.
Always fun, kids.

Why? What possible legitimate purpose could that serve?

Bragging rights.
The bullfrog bet a coworker he could hock a loogie 40 feet.
The guy measured out 40 feet on the factory floor, then STOOD on the line.
Green mucus between his eyes, he started to rage,
until the bullfrog chewed him out for standing in his way, preventing a 50 foot shot.
