Alternate uses for xPAP

Since these machines spend a fair bit of time sitting idle, I was wondering what else they can be used for? Some of my thoughts:

Aerating the hell out of your tropical fish tank

Telemarketers - just tell them to wait, strap on your full face mask, turn your machine on, then chat about their free offer

Jacuzzi - simply pop the hose in the bathtub.

Leaf blower with C-Flex

Office meetings (no explanation necessary)

Scuba diving without the scuba part

Fog Machine for disco parties

Lint removal / cat hairs - does not work, but neither does anything else really.

Halloween / fancy dress (costume) party - go as an OSA sufferer.

OSA Poker - A straight flush of smart cards beats a full house

...any other ideas?

I use my spare xPAP on my desk at work to provide a bit of soothing white noise all day. Then when I go to bed, I don't hear anything.

People (like me) who have the M series can use it to blow dry the leaks from the machine!

Great idea Oflineon!

On 01 June of this year I took over a third, and quite large Garden/Weekend plot upon which a wonderful little house stands. I immediately began digging trenches and laying cable so that we would have a power source. Just in time for my 7 year old son's summer vacation we had electricity (yippee!) so we spent his entire vacation 'camping out' there. I have since acquired a futon bed for sleeping on but originally I had purchased a large air mattress. I sat and huffed and puffed for a while and then it occurred to me: Why not open the larger air vent and use my CPAP to inflate it.

Never in my life have I seen an air mattress inflate so rapidly! I did the same thing with the large Intex Easy-Set pool too! WOW, no more huffing and puffing!

Tricia: who has found great joy in blowing things up! (ah, the joy in simple pleasures can't be topped)

You could use it to power a wind tunnel for paper airplanes? I used mine the other day to annoy a girlfriends cat. Very satisfying.

They can be used to blow dust out of your computer. Just make sure there is absolutely no moiture in the hose.
