 If you could write the numbers of hours on your machine when it died (or is still going) and your set pressure, that would be great....
Estimating a particular machine's useable life by taking one standard deviation (or the mean or the average) of a population of machines is risky. If, like many of us, you would be miserable missing just one night of CPAP, keep a working backup. Your machine might fail at bedtime in week six.
