The CPAP machine doesn't use wifi & the internet to upload usage data - it uses a cell phone connection (built-in cell modem). These usually will not work in a different country (I'm guessing you're starting off in the US). However, it will continue to store data on an SD card inside (if you have on...

The recommended replacement schedule is partly CYA & partly a way to get more money for the DME's. Initially, as a newbie, I thought there might be some valid reason for the recommendations - but then after a little experience & a lot of learning from this group, I'm following a different schedule -...

Neither of us try to use our CPAP machines on the plane - so no experience. I do recall seeing some threads about that in the past, so doing a search might help. From what I vaguely remember reading - you want to keep your tank connected without water in it - and turn off the humidifier & heated hos...

The caution about using 110V AC heating devices on 100V AC supply probably applies to things that have the heating element directly connected to the AC power & use a significant amount of power (for example, the curling irons and hairdryers). The humidifier heater in the AirSense 10 is not like this...

Pugsy: Thanks - makes a lot of sense to me. Physics/Thermodynamics determine what will happen & its best to work with them rather than against. I'll simply continue to put my machine on a convenient stand next to the bed - I have a heated hose & have experienced rainout maybe twice in the 5 months I...

"But for right now, be sure your machine's is situated lower than your mattress so the water will run back to it and not to you." I keep on seeing this recommendation & it still makes no sense to me. The water is due to condensation, which will occur all along the tubing. The tubing from the machine...

"I really wish I could find a tody way to tap into the pellet stove heat." Google should be your friend - I googled "How to make distilled water on a pellet stove" and got lots of answers. One is below, there's lots more. Really shouldn't be all that difficult, if you're handy with duct tape... http...

I've never tried it - but, it seems to me that the name is a bit misleading, as a filtration system can not produce distilled water. From Mirriam Webster: "water that has been freed of dissolved or suspended solids and from organisms by distillation (as for medical or chemical purposes)" - and this ...

My wife has the same machine (so I could look at the details). The power "brick" that goes between the cord that plugs into the wall and the cord that plugs into the CPAP has markings on one side that explains what it can utilize for input power. In this particular case it is marked something like: ...

FWIW, my family went to Japan in 2017 from the US. My wife carried her CPAP as she usually did when traveling with me. No questions were asked upon entering Japan (at Narita airport, Tokyo) - nor when departing Japan and re-entering the US. We didn't do anything special concerning customs or getting...
