Re: Philips discontinues many products

Re: My cpap machine smells like the last place it was used

I suspect that things can get into the machines and linger. My experience; I have used CPAP since diagnosed with severe sleep apnea in Dec 2009, (and joined CPAPtalk and learned a lot back in 2010) I have been able to use it and know how to clean and maintain the equipment, and I NEED the equipment ...

Re: Battery usage with CPAP for traveling (S8 and A10)

I am considering using a Suaoki Portable Solar Generator instead of cheaper 12V hobby or AGM batteries, and was wondering opinions on it.
