Sorry for reviving this thread.

Can I get a recommendation from those who tried medical cannabis? What's better for sleep, CBD or THC?
THC for me, see?

Re: Humidifer questions.. Resmed 10 Airsense

Would you say you can personally still smell the vinegar, or is it almost barely noticable? how strong do you find the smell once you have rinsed it out? if you have the money, why not buy a spare humidifier tank? you can clean the first one and let it dry out completely. however long that takes. y...

"FDA Clearance" is not the same as "FDA Approved". Clearance only means a basic scrutiny for safety as compared to other devices. The FDA is not saying the device is effective.

Re: Airsense 11 humidifier not heating

if you decide on repair, try these guys- https://acbio.com/ but I see you don't have a backup, so that would be at least a week without it. I'd go with the machine that granny recommended. good luck! Thanks, Zonker! I think I just lucked out. They just sent out a notice of Prime Days sale at cpap.c...

this is prolly WAY too soon to be the needed fix, but things are posting and reloading much faster for me, at least. Some things load fairly quickly but other things not so quick. I just deleted a duplicate post and it took 45 seconds where as normally it only takes a couple of seconds...maybe. wel...

My humidity level is set to 8 and my hose temp is 84 F 3 hrs in I wake you with my mouth literally glued shut from dry mouth. If I increase humidity level higher I get rainout.
