Re: Can I use the Airsense 10 power supply with the AirMini?
As you've found, it works fine. When considering current capacity, excess is no problem.

Re: Moving from AS 11 to Lowenstein PRISMA 20a
I have read about people having trouble with the transition to biPAP from APAP as well. Not sure of their main complaints but I do think it has to do with that timing. I think the majority said to put it on rapid response or whatever it was. I know that some people also ordered the wrong machine. M...

Re: Moving from AS 11 to Lowenstein PRISMA 20a
So the EPR 3 dips effective pressure to the Epap right. The bi level machine lives at one pressure? So if I had inhale at 10 and exhale at 6, it will live at 8? C/APAP lives at the high pressure... bi-level lives at the low pressure. C/APAP dips the exhales, bi-level punches up the inhales. C/APAP ...

Re: Resmed 11 Water Chamber Capacity Increaser
My Resmed 11 water chamber hits the min. mark and I wake up too early like clockwork. Have tried all settings. No joy. Some time ago I thought I saw a field expedient solution to increasing the water chamber capacity. I can't find it again and REALLY want to find it! Thanks. ClearSpring costs a cou...

Re: Moving from AS 11 to Lowenstein PRISMA 20a
I have a lot of issues breathing out against pressure and the Lowenstein ramps up too quickly after my exhale drop that it just messes with me. I wish I could change the timing on how fast the inhale comes back. I need an IPAP pressure of 9.6-10.2, but my body struggles when I have IPAP 6 or higher...

Re: Refurbish or buy new?
Insurance covers it, but makes you suffer for it, and must get it from one of those giant private equity owned DMEs. I’m talking about refurbishing the one I have, rather than buying a refurbished one. Probably $400 vs $1000 I completely rebuilt my AS10 Autoset... the motor was 130USD on Amazon, th...

Re: Screamin' Deal on Airsense 10 Elite
Hey VDBTR I hope you are well. I'm new here, so hope this post is OK. I tried to send you a pm to ask about this, but for some reason couldn't get that to function How are you finding the "new" software. I've heard that is a bit "clunky" and not a smooth easy fix? I would appreciate any feedback on...

Re: Camping at Elevation With Sever Apnea Again, Please Help
Well there SweetCheeks let's review: Two car batteries in series should power any machine ... Do you know if the OP has the same machine they had 10 months ago? Have no clue what machine they used, then or now. I did not find the 'smoking' reference in the ResMed guide... is that what happens when ...

Re: Bleep Eclipse Machine Mask Setting
Pillow. Any mask with the small feeder tube (Evora, N20 etc) I set to Pillow.
The Mask setting just adds another resistance to the algorithm... the machine punches up the delivery more when it thinks there's more resistance. Feel free to play with these, they're kinda like EPR.

Re: Cleaning with CLR
Vinegar is best. CLR is not recommended for any medical application. See if you can get him off it, here's the MSDS, note 'wear protective clothing':

Re: Camping at Elevation With Sever Apnea Again, Please Help
Really not sure what machine or batteries you're using... if you could describe them by showing links or naming the model that would help. Also are you combining them or using them one at a time? Two car batteries in series should power any machine with water and heat for a week. There are now large...

Re: Concerned/Worried - New Air Sense 11 AHI High
Still looks like it wants you around 8 or 9 base level. Or just leave it where it is... no biggie, you're doing great.
