Transcend Auto power consumption specifications

Post by Snortfree » Thu Jul 02, 2020 10:53 pm

Anyone know what the Transcend Auto (APAP) power consumption specifications are or how / where to find them? I've looked high and low on the machine, Somnetics, Transcend websites, user manuals, Googled, etc.. So far have found zero. It's almost like Transcend is keeping it a secret because that's the information I need to NOT use their grossly overpriced / underperfoming power bricks, travel and power supply accessories.
Closest I've found is on their MPA1 "Output: 19.2V, 2.6A" / Input: 13.0 VDC nominal. 10-15.5VDC, 5.5A". What I'm really after is the power consumption range in Watts per hour, relative to the air pressure output range (i.e. 4 - 20 cm H2O), but even an average consumption rate would be a big help.

When I built my backup battery I couldn't find anything for my series 60 either. If you have the machine and know how you can measure at your temperature and pressure needs. It will not be a constant number but if you go high you won't go wrong.
Good luck!
