Using CPAP overseas

110 volt outlets in bathrooms are close to worthless. They are meant for electric shavers and they usually will not charge a e reader even when plugged in all day. I would think any device made within the last 5 years is dual voltage.

You machine says it will work at 240 Volts so all you need is an adaptor, not a convertor.

You do not need to worry about anything overheating etc because your label says it uses about 3 amps at 24 Volts DC.

This means it uses approximately 0.3 Amps at 240 volts

So just be sure you have an adapter that has the right plug for where you are going,

And, thanks to the forum suggestions, take an extension cord with you.

If you have any questions or want details etc do contact me offline

These have gone up since I got mine, but I have used it all over the world with no problems.
