Re: AirCurve 11s are in But

I asked him about the water leaking and he said that is only happening with old people that don't use enough force to close push the water canister into the AirCurve 11. No. The lid has a Snap-Latch that it ensures it is closed completely and sealed. The tank also has a snap-Latch to ensure it is i...

Re: ResMed AirSense 10 "Smart Start" Doesn't Shut Down

These start/stop features cause more problems than they're worth I feel... just turn them off and use the button, what's so hard? Given that millions of ResMeds with SmartStart are used every night, and only a few report problems, I fail to see how feel they are more trouble then they are worth. Ad...

Re: Anyone else experiencing connection problems here on the forum

The root cause of the forum problems is because CPAP . com and the Goodmans have become absentee landlords. Whenever there are technical issues, it takes weeks just to get their attention (if at all). Then weeks for them to escalate it to their technical team (if at all). Then weeks to address (if a...

Re: OT.....Trump falling asleep in court

What possible reason should a judge order a sleep study?

Are you suggesting that all defendants (found guilty), who fall asleep in court, be ordered to have a sleep test, or just the Donald Trump ones?

Re: Unclassified Apneas

This post serves as a good example of why people shouldn't post small snippets of their OSCAR screen shot. Pugsy was able to recognise Large Leak because of the combination of UA and Grey Background . Many wouldn't, We know with a lot of confidence, that the OP was awake (not awake enough to form st...

Re: Resmed water chamber issues

I have a Resmed Air Sense 10 and have been using it for 18 months- fantastic. I have a problem with my water reservoir leaking but only occasional. I now place my machine in an inverted plastic tub cover to prevent it from damaging the nightstand. I only use distilled water in it. Is there any way ...

Re: My Lucky Day

I forgot to mention the included SD card AND a carry case for the SD card. I suppose it is so you can carry the card to your Dr? So if you aren't getting an SD card with your brand new zero hour AirCurve 10 then your equipment dealer (DME) is stealing it. The black ones are better. https://drive.go...

Re: Autostart not shutting off with Climatelineair

There are a couple of possibilities: Leak Sensor: The Climateairline might be causing a small leak that the machine misinterprets as breathing, preventing auto-off. Settings: Some settings might need adjustment for optimal autostart functionality with the Climateairline. This is not how AutoStop wo...

Re: Airsense 10 cutting in and out

The large gap between 00:40 and 2:25, the machine was likely off, and then turned back on. We know this because the pressure started at it's ramp of 6. The gap at 4:00 is also a machine power cycle. All the smaller gaps throughout the traces are a data reporting problem. The machine is staying on an...

Today's Solar Eclipse

I feel very fortunate that I live in the path of complete totality for today's solar eclipse. I just hope the weather co-operates. The current forecast is partial cloudiness. In case you are outside of of the path of the eclipse, or it's too cloudy, here's a YouTube live link: https://www.youtube.co...

Re: Can I put a few drops of Vick Vapo Steam in my CPAP Humidifier?

Yup that will work too but just so we are clear, the reason for recommending DISTILLED water instead of tap water in the humidifier, is to ensure that you are not inhaling pathogens that may be lurking around in tap water. Also tap water may leave scaling behind. Not according to ResMed. According ...
