The way my setup works is like this...

I have a 24V machine. I purchased an adapter that takes 12V from a battery and ups it to 24V for the machine. I just hook it to the battery, plug the machine in and it works.
I would have to bring a battery in our bedroom in the motorhome? ugh....

Re: Full Face Mask AND Taping Mouth Shut?

I don't know why this happens, but I'm glad it does. If I use a nasal mask, my mouth pops open, air rushes and I can't sleep.the minute I put on a full face mask....my mouth is closed. I have always wondered why. I am not a mouth breather during the day (unless I have a cold) why would I be such a m...

Re: Camping with an ASV cpap

my husband said it won't work (the converter) as we have a 12v plug. and, that we need a 12v cpap. *shrug* it's a 24v machine and we have a 12 v plug I guess is what he means.

I thought it would convert it TO 12 v...thought that's what the plug does?

this is confusing.

Re: Camping with an ASV cpap

S9 VPAP Adapt.....plugs into my 12v socket next to my bed, that would work as it's already there. I would prefer humidity as it's cold where we camp sometimes, and my nose gets a bit cold without it lol on the DreamStation, our 12 v set up was good enough I could use the humidifier. Our motorhome h...
