AirSense 10 Makeshift Battery Pack

I have an AirSense 10 Autoset that I'm looking to use on overnight flights. It seems there's inconsistency with being allowed to plug it into outlets, and also the outlets sometimes don't give consistent enough power so it's best to use a battery pack.

In Canada there's this battery pack specifically for AirSense 10, but it costs $400, and it seems to not have the best reviews about maintaining a charge. https://www.amazon.ca/Pilot-24-Battery- ... B07C8734MB

I already own an Anker battery pack that I was thinking I could use with the right cord: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0B9XHR6BG?ref ... asin_title


There's an adapter for the airsense 11 with good reviews: https://www.amazon.com/Supply-AirSense- ... B0BV1J88GV , but the airsense 11 one from the same company seems to have terrible reviews saying it doesn't work? https://www.amazon.com/Converter-Airsen ... B0DDSWPC13 Also these are both only from USA Amazon.


Has anyone else been in this scenario and found something that works that doesn't involve paying $400 for a low quality item?

I've put together a supply to use with my S10 when the power is out. There are 12V power supplies available on Amazon for the S10, I have one. Combine with a 12V battery and you are good as long as the battery lasts long enough. The main issue is that the power consumption is pretty high even without the humidifier which you don't want to use. I've got a door that replaces the water tank making the unit smaller, which also automatically disables the heater. My power supply takes in anything between 12V and 24V. I use a "power wheels" adapter which allows me to use Ryobi 19V power tool batteries, I've always got several of those charged ready to use with my tools. It's a workable solution. I've never used it for real though. I recall the measurements with the S10 pointed to about 60 to 100 watt-hours for an 8 hour overnight. One of my larger Ryobi batteries will probably work overnight, and the battery is easily swapped, I'm always up at least once anyway.

I'm pretty sure the TSA isn't going to be very happy about a power tool battery though. A laptop power bank would be more acceptable. I believe an S10 requires 24V. USB C maxes out at 20V for laptops. It might work directly, but I'm not sure I'd trust it at 20V. If you wanted to try there are USB C adapters that will command a 20V output from a USB C power supply like you are looking at. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DPHHX1WH?re ... tle_5&th=1. The same adapter can be switched for other USB voltages.

I have an old HDM Z1 which will run directly from 12-14 volts. Its much more efficient since there aren't any conversion losses, and it draws a lot less power. to begin with. I have used the Z1 overnight on battery and it worked very well, it is quite practical. But Z1 is fixed pressure so it doesn't work very well for me. The HDM Z2 would be a reasonable option for me, but since I retired I don't travel enough to justify purchasing one. This is why I put together the S10 supply. If you can find a used travel machine it's probably a better solution, and easier to travel with. Any of them will all draw less power than an S10 so both the battery and machine are a lot smaller.

Your 5 volt Anker battery pack will not work.

You should look up FAA and airline restrictions on lithium batteries.
