Re: British Airways Power issue and general power for cpap

I also travel for business to the uk from the US and i bought a medistom battery for my air mini. They are expensive but worth it to me. I go mine online for under 300 during a recent sale. Many airlines will not allow cpap plugs ins while some do not care.

Re: Mask ?

I use the F30 with average pressures ranging from 11-15 almost every night. I have very few leaks. I am side sleeper. I do rotate maybe once every two weeks to the F20 Air touch if my allergies get too bad. Even when I try other masks, i always come back to the F30.

Re: Replacing filters

For my Resmed 10, I change once a month. We do have cat but a month seems sufficient.

I guess it depends on your environment.

Re: ResMed F30 - any experience or input?

I have been using the F30 for 4 nights. Not obviously enough for a full review, but it works for me better than the Dreamwear FFM. So far no leak issues at all and straps are more comfortable to me than the Dreamwear frame. It probably will be my primary mask going forward with a Air Touch F20 as my...

Re: CPAP machine

i was also diagnosed with mild apena with an AHI of 5.2. My doc said treatment was optional, but I knew I had lousy sleep. I did a three month trail of Cpap and felt a lot better with AHI of under 1 most days. I also have other risk factors include diabetes and small stroke, so i wanted to reduce th...

Re: AirMini Clinical Menu

Try clicking he Bluetooth icon on the dashboard. then click on the Resmed and AirMini logos together. Thats how you get into the clinical menu once initial setup is complete. I was trying to do the same thing with an iPhone X, till i learned how to get to the menu the above way.

Good luck

Re: Improved ResMed AirFit F20

I broke down and bought kit from sponsor. New elbow is much better. Much quieter and most important to me is that air not now blowing in my face. I use it with f20 air touch and air fit which use the same frame.

Re: Informal Poll: Dreamwear FFM or the AirFit F20?

I am currenty bouncing between the f20 air touch and the dreamwear FFM. Pros and cons for both. I like the f20 as it does not fit under the nose, but started stuggling with f20 with leaks when side sleeping with regular pillow. Thinking about trying a cpap pillow.

Re: What do you do with your hose?

Another vote for hose buddy. After pulling my cpap off the table one night, i knew i needed a solution. With buddy i have enough slack to roll in either direction with the hose suspended above. Less wake ups battling the hose octopus as well.

Re: New to this

Welcome to forum. I am a new user as well with a few months under my belt. I started with the Air Touch F20 and keep coming back to it for it comfort and leak control. I really like it. I bought a Air Fit cushion to try it, but prefer the Touch even though its life is not as long as the Fit. Check b...

Re: Dreamwear FFM - strap marks

I feel that i do not have to tighten very tight to get a good seal. Marks may be coming from side sleeping against pillow. Using a medium frame which seems to fit, No tightness on top.

Dreamwear FFM - strap marks

Hi all, Been using CPAP for about 5 weeks and picked up a dreamwear FFM and found it to be alot more comfortable than my F20. Only problem i am having is with strap marks on my face. Are the pads worth the investment or any other better ideas? My FFM did not come with pads and i do not feel like i h...

Re: Any Mac users out there using SleepyHead?

Works great for me on my Macbook Air. I am running High Sierra.

Only real issue is if you want to import O2 levels. I have not gotten this to work with CMS reader on Mac. I must import to Windows and then load the file.
