Highly recommend a list in big type of everything needed inside the travel bag...makes it more likely that everything needed will actually be packed On the other hand, having a duplicate setup of everything is also a really sweet alternate solution !

Hopefully that will be the last time you forget any supplies when traveling.

Iput a sticky label on everything. Power, machine, humidifier, hose & mask and number the items from 1 to 5.

When its time to zip up the bag I shout "Sound Off' and count the 1 thru 5.

I own about 5 wall to brick power cords now, Every time I forget one it's off to RadioShack. I now keep one in the wall here at home, one in my duffel that I usually use and still try to put one with the CPAP when I pack. Riding motorcycle now I have stopped using the provided bag since it takes so much room. I pad with the tee shirts and sock I have in the bag already.
always a hosehead, almost a hoser.

If you do a lot of travelling, it makes sense to buy a travel xpap. Keep it packed and ready to go - including mask, hose, power supply, etc. It also serves as a useful backup in the event that your primary xpap fails for some reason.
I'm workin' on it.
