My battery charger dosen't hum or clack (no sounds at all) ... it is stored away under the bed (so nothing to look at either) and it is a 95 amp-hour absorbent glass mat (AGM) battery with no acid smell or explosive dangers (even knock it over and it won't spill) ... and I can use it for 8 to 10 nights without having to recharge if need be. Haven't tried hooking up the heart paddles though ... can we buy those on ebay or craigslist?OldLincoln wrote:DreamStalker.... Like a lot of people, I prefer a package deal and am hesitant to "build it". I picture a car battery with jumper cables going to my APAP and a battery charger that turns on with a loud clack and hum. It looks like a cartoon in my imagination, of course we can embelish the thought with a pair of heart paddles hanging there as a "backup device" for the extra chuckle. But I would like to know more about how it looks, sounds and is there the acid smell when it's charging (explosive!).
Might be an opportunity for someone to package units.

President-pretender, J. Biden, said "the DNC has built the largest voter fraud organization in US history". Too bad they didn’t build the smartest voter fraud organization and got caught.

Great. I am glad that you are taken care of. All CPAP users should have some sort of battery back-up power, regardless of which method used.DreamStalker wrote:One can easily get a good marine deep cycle battery and battery charger setup for less than half that price ... with no alram to disable
