Re: The Resmed STANDARD P30i is far too small.

Your head band size is not relevant for the problem you're describing. If the mask is pulling the cushion to tight upwards, then it's a problem with facial length, not head circumference. The standard is the largest size frame, and if that doesn't work, there's no options for you with the ResMed P30...

Re: i read that the rm 11 water reservoir with white thumb hole filler is dushwasher safe and can use regular bottled wa

yes, all resmed tanks with the white grips are dishwasher safe (10, and 11).

Being dishwasher safe is not the reason you can use regular bottled (or tap) water.

Any tank can use any (drinkable) water, it's all about cleaning convienance.

Re: No signal on my Resmed 10

Service changed from 3G to 4G in about 2016. How old is your machine? No. In the US, depending on the carrier, 2G was sunsetted in the 2017-2020 time frame. 3G was sunsetted in 2022 Hi all….having an issue with my resmed 10.

Re: CPAP DESTROYED MY LIFE

If you're suggesting that using CPAP, for a single night was responsible for you having a permanent case of Central Apnea, than you are either wrong, or are the first documented case ever.

If you have Central, then the solution is an ASV.

There's nothing else to discuss.

Re: Am I recycling exhaled air with P10 pillow?

ResMed all the mask manufacturers have been designing masks and measuring CO2 retention and venting for years. It's more than adequate. My pressure settings are 4.0-16.0 as it auto detects and ramps up and down as needed. If you want to work on something your APAP settings of 4-16 is what you need t...

Re: Curious about Oscar breathing waveforms

Flat-topped wave forms means Flow Limitations. Bump your pressure up a bit to get a nice rounded curve to them.

Not true if you use the Bleep.
Of course it doesn't include daily single use supplies.

Still true for the tank and hose.

Re: Advance supplies for extended vacation Medicare and Supplemetal

You don't need quarterly supplies. The DMEs have convinced you, you do. The insurance schedules is the minimum frequency that insurance will pay for supplies, *not* the frequency that they should be replace. The next time you're due for replacements, order them, but don't use them. Due this twice, n...

Re: power source for resmed airsense 11

I just want to chime in to re-enforce exactly what lynninnj says. I use the exact same battery, Ecoflow Delta 2. I keep the battery plugged in to AC 100% of the time, and then the CPAP plugged in via the AC inverter. The advantage of this is: The CPAP is drawing of the grid and not the battery, ther...

Re: My next experiment....the AirSense 11 AutoSet

Soft response doesn't seem to be a choice option when in the "for Her" mode. Soft Response isn't available in For Her mode, because For Her Mode is already in Soft Response mode and can't be set to Standard Response. Yeah I figured as much. Still can't say as I noticed it really doing anything or n...

Re: My next experiment....the AirSense 11 AutoSet

Well.....I am still battling rain out which is totally weird. I put hose cozies on both the heated hose and the mask short hose (these were the super nice cozies from Padacheek) and I still woke up too early with rain out. I didn't have this problem with the AirCurve 10 set at the exact same settin...

Why are the pillows in the nasal mask called pillows?
They are called pillows because when the creating manufacturer first created them, they decided to use a term that would market better.

Re: Why’s AirSense 10 spewing white flakes, out of the blue left air exhaust?

I didn't notice if you are using distilled water. Why didn't you carefully peruse? I wrote twice "refill with distilled water" and "refilled with distilled water". You don't understand how people use forms. Many don't "carefully fully", nor should they be expected to. They see topics, maybe scan th...
