how do you afford this? they are $500 at the cheapest....?
The two spares, 1 was from CPAP DOT COM new, other was used, this was with read dollars they were bigger than Obama dollars. (Bought More) They were made in the U.S.A. back then too. I worked hard and got put away wet many times, as it turned out too many times for my health. Jim

Buy the Best XPAP, at the time the module is being closed out, but buy the one that gives you everything you need. I never have to worry about CA's, my machines don't score them. 12 years never worried about them, one less thing to obcess over, it's good for my health.

I've paid less than that for all the cpaps I've bought... no, I take that back, the VPAP Tx was more than 500
