Resmed Airsense 11 power cord replacement

Post by guermofo » Wed Feb 09, 2022 3:59 am

Hello! Wondering if anyone has been able to purchase a replacement power cord for their Resmed Airsense 11. My asshole puppy decided to chew mine up and I can only seem to find replacements for the Airsense 10.

I’m going to go to my CPAP provider on Friday (they have weird hours, soonest I can get there) and see if they can give me one, but that means going two more nights without it and I’m not sure what that will mean for my insurance coverage.

I was hoping to have one shipped overnight to me but that doesn’t seem possible. Am I missing something or do they not provide replacement power cords for this model?

Many people are reporting problems getting supplies and accessories for the AirSense 11, including;
  • Filters
  • Heated hoses
  • Humidifiers
  • DC-DC converters
  • And now let's add AC power supply to the list
The contributing factors are, Respironics recall, electronics supply chain problems and a new device. Not many will have direct experience as Air 11 devices are so new, not much marketshare yet and of those, few will have needed a new power supply.

You might have better luck getting an Air 10 loaner if your DME can't get you an Air 11 power supply.

I assume the damaged part is the cord from the machine to the power brick????
If so...I have no idea where you can get that replaced.

But if it is the cord from the power brick to the electric wall outlet...usually any computer power cord will work just fine. That part of the power supply is pretty much standard. I have robbed from many computers when my cats have damaged that part of the power cord on my cpap machine...

It’s both, the little jerk chewed both sides of the cord off of the power brick :x

I called and thankfully the medical supply store is able to ship one to me! Just have to order some cord protectors as well :roll:

Little stinker. :lol:
My dogs haven't ever messed with my cords but I have a couple of cats that have been called some very bad words.

All my cords to anything have a protective covering over them. I had a cat eat my router cord and I was without internet until I got a new internet cord from the router to power source. Damn cat.

Doggie teeth might be stronger though if it is going to be a big dog and he develops that bad habit.
So plan as needed with the cord covers.
I have used up over 50 ft I think it is of cord cover I got in a big roll from Amazon. It has a weird texture to it and of course adds some bulk....the cats don't like it. Thank God.

A while back I was moving things around in the bedroom and the cpap and power cords got moved.
It's a wonder the cat didn't get fried....teeth marks and bare wire showing through all over the cord. That was the first item to get covered by the cord protecting stuff.
