Z1 travel machine question

Post by dannys » Mon Aug 14, 2023 9:09 am

I have a HDM Z1 travel machine that I don't find as comfortable to use as my AirSense 10. The problem is that it doesn't seem to blow unless I breath in. That doesn't seem right to me but maybe I am missing something.

I'm going to be doing a lot of traveling and would rather bring somethinb a little more portable. I've lugged the AS10 on a bunch of trips but it is too bulky and heavy.

I was thinking that I might try buying an air mini to use since I love my AS10. Which by the way is now showing "Motor life exceeded" - but that's a different issue.)

If you can afford it, you will likely love the Airmini.
Expect it to be about as noisy as the Z1, though.
Travel machines are by nature noisier.
If you are flying, remember to NEVER check your cpap.
Airline personnel seem to be dedicated to destroying things.
