If it would be for me then the white noise would be this sound generator to mask my ringing in the ears (Tinnitus).

The exact tone that I need to mask my Tinnitus is about 4,000 Hz at about mid level (60%) here:

This should be OK:

The Pilot 24 does not since it is 100% DC (no inverter). Inverters can cause a whine that may be audible to some. On this general subject, we use a pink noise generator every night that covers any noise except very loud noises like thunder. My wife got me hooked on using a noise generator every night.
See my above post for you.

I have had Tinnitus for 35 years or more and I have never seen a machine like you posted. I am lucky in that the not stop ringing has never messed with my sleep, at least not that I know of. I hope you can get some peace and quiet.

Thanks for this additional discussion folks. I really appreciate it. I'm going to look into this PIlot24 option. I think the name is especially appropriate. I have to get something put together, the trip is just 4 weeks away.

So if I understand correctly, the $84 power converter would not be necessary then. That certainly helps the wallet.

Looks good, but ends up being the same price as the Medistrom 24 V battery once you add the adapter. Uggh.

Be sure to post your battery experience after the trip. Lots of interest here.

I use the Medistrom Pilot 12 with my Respironics auto 560. I only use it as an Uninterrupted Power Supply. It is worth the cost, for me. Have had it a few months and it has kicked on twice, for a short power outage, during the night. It made no sound that I could hear, but I was asleep! I knew the power had been out because our stove and microwave clocks were flashing in the morning. I don't know how long It would last as battery power. That would depend on your pressure settings. You would not be able to use it with heated humidity.
