Does the machine have any type of expiratory relief feature?
Is the LCD display backlit? and is the user able to turn the light on and off?
Does the unit have an auto on/off feature? if so, how is it triggered?

SleepyTimeGal posted the following to a new thread, I have pasted it here to keep everything together:
What is the maximum amount of water the chamber will hold on the humidifier?
Is there a power cord that will work on a plane that will attach to the passenger seat-like how you plug in a dvd or computer?
What type of masks are compatible--nasal, full face, prongs, pillows, etc, and are there any pressure problems with masks other than nasal masks?
How do you recharge the battery?
Thanks,
SleepyTimeGal

How much water does the humidifier hold? How much is this in comparison to other heated humidifiers like the Remstar Heated Humidifer?
How long will the battery operate with the humidifier and unit set at average pressures and heat settings?
Are there separate power cords for the CPAP unit and the humidifier?

No pictures of the humidifier yet? Those will answer a lot of questions.
Looks like the final design is simplified from the original prototype used for the pictures on the website. I was hoping it had a flip-up handle on top. Pictures of the original design suggested it might.

What is the battery made of (NiCad, NimH, Lithium, Seal Lead)?
Can the unit be used on 110 istead of battery?
If so, will the battery recharge while 110 is in use?
Does the unit have to be purchased privately since most users will already have a CPAP on their insurance?
If not has reimbursement been arranged with insurance carriers?
Projected Cost of the unit?

Will the travel bag accommodate the CPAP machine with all its components - i.e. humidifier, hose, battery pack, cords plus mask?
What will the total weight and size of the bag be when fully packed?
How silent is the machine and how long is its guarantee?
It looks like everyone else has covered my questions, including the Aura's CPAP being compatible with masks from different companies plus airline approval.

AEIO Med Aura Battery Powered CPAP
Is there a built-in power converter that allows the unit to be operated and the battery to be recharged directly from 220 V AC sources, such as are found in many countries outside the U.S.?
Can the CPAP unit be connected to and operated from an external 12 V source (e.g., a 12 V automobile or marine battery), and can the battery unit be recharged from it?
How rugged is the unit? Is it built solidly enough to remain functional under normal backpacking-type conditions?
