How many Watts does a CPAP use on Battery?

- I plug in my Resmed Airsense 10 CPAP to a battery pack to see how many Watts it uses. With external battery packs, you can take your CPAP camping or anywhere with no power and still get a good night's sleep. I review some of my top CPAP battery picks here: generatorgrid....
Here is the 12-24V cigarette adapter I used from Amazon amzn.to/3wgaRJE
I use a Resmed Airsense 10 as my home machine plugged into mains AC power - it has a heated hose but no humidifer. For travelling I use my old Philips Respironics (foam removed) and power it from from a Jackery 300 using the accessory DC adapter lead. From one full charge of the Jackery I get four full nights sleep of 7+ hours. FYI I use nasal pillows as opposed to a full face mask.
Four nights is great!
I need someone to do this test with the humidifier. I don't enjoy waking up feeling like I'm in the Sahara.
You can buy inline moisture exchange filters, it may help you. I personally haven’t tried them but I have heard they help with the travel cpaps that don’t have the humidifier.
My mind is made up im gonna use my humidifier when i go to sleep i want to be comfortable!!!!!!!!!!!! all that means is buy a bigger powerstation if you can afford it.
I got about 4 hours with humidifier on. 300w Jackery.
@@850OVERLAND Yikes. That's not enough... I need a full night! In fact, several.
Thanks for information, just the information I was looking for for going of grid camping. Cheers
Very informative and just the exact video I've been looking for, thanks so much.
using AC vs DC the conversion uses about 3 times the the energy as straight DC. the invertor produces waste heat energy and also uses a fan to deal with that. RUN STRAIGHT DC if you can
This was helpful as I have been shopping for a battery for my CPAP. I hope you make another video with the water heater on so I can factor that information into my calculations.
unless you absoltuly need a light power source.....just use a deep cycle marine battery. it will power you for 7days no humid or heat.
Very helpful. Thanks very much!
Great video.. I could never wear that face mask, I love my soft pillow nose mask.
This was so useful!
Been using a sleep apnoea machine for quite quite awhile I love Hunting and going fishing etc. It has stopped me from doing those activities sense of had sleep apnoea for some reason did not even cross my mind a battery. I was thinking of using a generator but it’s too noisy at night, what a idiot I am. I finally found something.
I have the Resmed air sense 10 and camped for 5 days and used a deep cycle marine battery from
Walmart ($100) and a Schumacker 410 w power converter with my humidifier turned off and got 4 nights averaging 8 hours sleep. When I got home I still had a surprising amount of power left in my battery. Now I will be camping for 2 weeks so I have to decide on buying another battery or investing in a power bank. I just don't want to spend a lot of money on something that will only get me 4 or 5 nights, have any suggestions?
Thank for the information i was looking for on CPap and deep cycle battery . Many of the youtube videos didn’t show the basic run time with cheapest to go with deep cycle battery . Guessing without humidifier run amps for my CPap will be 1amp draw and with deep cycle battery I should get a hundred hours .
The 12 volt adapter for CPaps are on ebay starting about $35 on up if this is your unit ?

@@vmobile890 Hey vmobile890. Did you find a solution? I have been wondering the same thing about the deep cycle with the 12v cig adaptor. Hard to find someone that has a firm answer. Thanks!
you need to run straight DC to cpap. the invertors eat upto 3times the energy just in conversion
@@dontronge9874 you need to run straight DC to cpap. the invertors eat upto 3times the energy just in conversion
@@crabtrap You are right on about using the DC outlet. I now have 3 powerbanks and 2 batteries( lifepo4 )are so much better, I can now get many more nights using DC power.
Dude, I use a 12V 12Ah LiFePO4 battery and DC to DC step up 12 to 24V and no heat uses 7 to 10 Watts... much more efficient. The cheap Chinese DC to DC 12-24 cost only $10 and the 12AH LiFePO4 battery $30.
What exact battery did you get?
Thank you so much. We have the exact generator. My husband looked on the back and it said 90 watts. I suspect the higher amount is if someone used the humidifier. This is a bipap machine so I don't know if it uses more wattage.
The power supply is over spec'd. Usually worst case scenario with a wide margin. Like computers often have 500-700W power supplies but often run ~200W.
What amp is it pulling I bey a battery 500€ and this one fails if I put the mask on
So how much if you need the humidifier on?
What’s the treatment pressure setting on your cpap?
where can I get a dc adapter for my air sense 10?
I use a $10 dc-dc converter the metal block kind from China with a 12V 12Ah LiFePO4 battery and it works 2 nights (144Wh) and can go on aircraft as it's under 160Wh. $40 all in as I soldered it together myself with a battery plug.
Ah, number one, your video is way-y to far from us views, so when you are pointing to the display...we can't read it. Number two, it appears as if you have a rather large home, however you are doing us no favours when doing the balancing act and the teeny-weensie table with a plant in the way.
