Another great vid from Respshop.
I started CPAP therapy a almost 6 years ago. But I travel a LOT - over 13 weeks a year (sans COVID). About 6 months after I started CPAP therapy I loved it but I determined that dragging my AirSense 10 all over the country every month was a pain and I bout the Mini. My wife also is under CPAP therapy and does a lot of international travel so we share the device. Ours has been to 3 different continents with various power adapters. It's about to go to Lima Peru in September. It probably has over 5,000 hours on it. Fantastic machine.
Last year I had knee replacement surgery and had to stay overnight in the hospital. I took my Mini with me. The respiratory therapist at the hospital had never seen one before! She thought it was great!!
Humidification: I agree with the vid, you have to pay for the HME filters. I typically travel only a week at a time and I use one each trip and consider that a part of life cost. My wife has done 30 days on one filter during a trip to Europe. Not cheap but worth it and you don't have to find distilled water.
Tubing: There is now an adapter so you can use standard tubing and any head gear / mask you want but I don't recommend it because you cannot use the HME filters.
Noise: It is a little noisy. In a hotel room I typically throw a hand towel over it and make sure it can breathe. That seems to muffle the noise. But I also have tinitus so I usually have the room AC fan on to block out the noise.
Price: It is expensive and insurance, if you have it, generally will not cover the cost for a travel machine (at least in the US). But for me and my wife - not having to drag around a standard machine and having to try and find distilled water is priceless. In our minds, it has paid for itself just in that.
Interface: I like the smart phone interface. Unfortunately there is no way to combine your data from your AirSense 10 or 11 into one online account so when your sleep therapist or pulmonologist reviews your ResMed on-line data there will be gaps so you will need to let them know you used the Mini for travel for those gaps. [I specifically corresponded with ResMed in Australia and they confirmed there was no way they could combine the info into one on-line data set.]
If you do use it for travel - especially international - be sure to check the air filter! When my wife got back from Europe a couple of years ago, after 30 days the filter was nearly gray/brown and it was new when she left home. A lot of the places she stayed allowed smoking. 😞
If you get one I know you will enjoy your Mini for travel!

How powerful a vilatage converter do I need for overseas 240 to 110? - a small on like for my cell ohone or the big one I need for a hair dryer?
@@chrisparrish6229 I have the same question. Traveling from US to S Korea and trying to figure out what converter to use.
You do not need a power converter, as the power supply on the AirMini is dual voltage (100-240 VAC). You will need the electrical adapter that is compatible with the wall outlet in the country to which you are traveling. @@chrisparrish6229
Thank you for the detailed review
Excellent video overview! The only thing I would change about it is the claim that the “difference in sound is minimal” or the claim that it is “still a very quiet machine” (at the 9:00 minute point). The difference in sound is far from ”minimal”, it is a VERY noticeably different (louder) compared, for example, to the ResMed AirSense 10. You WILL hear this loud whooshing sound right under your nose, from the diffusing vents around the compartment where the HumidX cartridge (which provide the humidification) is housed. Removing the HumidX cartridge makes no difference. Now, I have gotten used to this loud whooshing, but it took a long time for me to adjust to it. Also, if you sleep with a partner/spouse, be aware they will also notice that the AirMini is much louder than the Airsense 10. Something to consider.
Thank you for your feedback. The difference in noise is based on mask and pressure settings. The noise varies patient to patient.
A standard full time CPAP noise level is 26.6 DBA as the airmini is 30 DBA.

100% I bought this to go on holiday and it was very noisy and was windy on my partner. I wish I could take out the humidifier filter thing and block that off completely as I don’t uses my humidifier on my Airsense 10 anymore!!
Yes agree. The machine body is not noisy BUT the wooshing sound from the mask vents is ridiculous and disturbing. Why was it designed this way. My A10 mask is so quiet. Why can’t i just use the same elbow and tube!
What a detailed and super helpful video!! Good job respshop!! I rent the airmini with you guys whenever I travel!! Always a smooth transaction with u guys!

what?!? rent? is that possible? I am a distance cyclist and like to travel inn-to-inn, with camping once in a while, with everything on my bike. I need the battery to be as light as possible, and the unit to be as small as possible, as well as the accessories. I would love to rent the unit in anticipation of possibly "investing" in one! So expensive!
@@KevinFoley did you end up renting or buying one? I see this comment was a year ago so I'm interested if you invested!! It would be a dream to have a mini! 😊
@@Christine-yf3uh neither. It’s so much money that I really need to line up a lot of overnight cycling events which don’t have power to justify the expense. Until then, I do credit-card overnight cycling (in other words, hotels/inn/some source of power)
Thanks was helpful 🙂 I’m planning to buy the mini to use it in airplane for long trip, i have the big one using at home or hotels. Very helpful, before using CPAP my life quality was bad 😢, I was fainting from lack of oxygen, every were in office or in deriving.
Glad it was helpful and thank you for watching!

This is a great review but it needs to be updated because you absolutely can use your regular cpap mask with this device. All you need is an adapter for the hose and they are readily available and work perfectly. You won’t have the humidifier capabilities though.
Thank you for your feedback! We have a link in our description to an AirMini Tubing Connector Adapter that you can use to connect any mask and non-heated tube to the AirMini. We decided not to mention this in the review video b/c it's a lot of info for potential users to process.
This was an incredibly helpful video! Short but just long enough and to the point. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent, helpful video. Thank you. It would be good to update it to include information about the special HumidX cartridges for the F20 line of full face masks. Also, it is my understanding there are now after-market mufflers to add inline to quiet the noise. Maybe you could comment on their effectiveness.
Great suggestion!

Very useful video thank you - I was going to purchase the mini as my primary cpap machine however I am now reconsidering
Thank you for watching! Glad it helped!
I ended up purchasing the mini and i have to say I adore the simplicity of this little beauty, not having to boil water every night to fill up the humidifier is wonderful. It started out a little noisy however I've found placing a folded towel beneath it reduces the noise and does placing it below the bed on the floor. I'll see how I still feel closer to the 30 day guarantee from Resmed. My sleep lab advised me to change the filer every 3 months however you're suggesting every month, is that correct or should i just check the colouring of the filter throughout the first and second months?
@@gloriasaliba3395 Glad to hear you're enjoying your AirMini - it's one of our favorite travel units too. Because everyone's air quality is different, we suggest checking the coloring of the filter throughout the first and second months to get an idea of how regularly you should replace your filter. Hope this helps!
Great video and helpful! I just ordered the air mini for travel with nasal pillow & should have it the end of the week. I've been packing up the larger home unit in the zipper bag for travel dealing with locating smart water or distilled water to buy. I'm a 18 year user of CPAP and currently have the ResMed 10 for at-home use. I've heard of people complaining about the noise from the air mini compared to the home unit for obvious reasons because of the build Style. We shall see? 🤞

Did you find it was louder?
@@bellamarie6602 I only tested it for a few minutes setting it up. I haven't slept with it yet. It did sound louder. Won't really know for sure until actual use. Hopefully the convenience factor out ways the noise? 🤞
@@thebossfanman4900 Update please… how are you finding it compared to the home unit? Noise? Dry sinuses?
@blackrhino44 I traveled internationally 10 days with the air mini and found it to be a useful c-pap & very convenient alternative to packing the larger unit requiring distilled water. I used the recommended moisture disk & didn't have any dry mouth issues or sinus issues. It does create more air noise than the home unit, but not to the point of preventing falling a sleep. Other than the $900.00 cost plus buying extra accessories, I really don't have any other significant complaints. It's portable travel size & ease to operate makes it a great alternative over taking the larger home unit plus needing to locate smart water since it's impossible to find distilled water when traveling.
I would be buying one of these for my travels to Europe. Does this unit take the 220V as well as 120V like in the US? My full size RESMED machine has a transformer in the power adaptor so it was no problem taking it to Spain.
Hi, the AirMini is dual voltage (100-240V) just like your full size ResMed machine. Thanks for watching and have fun in Europe!
Great video. I'm ready to buy one of these but here in Vancouver BC they are rare as hens teeth!

The unit requires smart phone to run it but I assume it doesn’t require cellular or Wi-Fi service correct?
You do not need to a have a cellphone or computer to run the machine unless you need to make changes to your settings. The machine has a modem built in if you decide to connect it to the airmini app or if your Dr needs to download your data off the airview software.
if it had better humification, I"d purchase it since settings can be made from an app. I"m blind and this would be perfect.

It comes with a humidifier that you snap in, believe it or not it's just enough moisture for your nose, in my opinion it's better than the reservoir type because that has actually thrown water in the tube and my nose was saturated it's like I was drowning lol...
I can attest to the fact that the HumidX cartridges do provide excellent humidification. I was very concerned because I am very sensitive to dry air and need the humidification, and to my surprise the little HME cartridges do an excellent job. I have not even needed the HumidX Plus (which provides higher humidification) except during super dry and cold winter months in the Midwest US. But they aren’t cheap and need to be replaced every few weeks.
@@cfrtravel7734 they are like 60.00 for the humidifiers
I am blind to I was wondering the same thing. Thank you for asking this question.
Does this also work as an everyday CPAP machine (so I don’t have to spend 2 grand for both an everyday CPAP AND one for when I travel) or do I have to buy separate machines?
Hello Jay,
you can certainly use this everyday. Just note it is missing a standard humidifier where you add distilled water too (which most patients need/want) Also due to the size, the unit does have a shorter life span then a standard CPAP.

@@RespShopwhat is the lifespan of the mini - I’m also thinking of purchasing the mini as my primary machine
@@gloriasaliba3395 The AirMini's service life is 5 years
The mini is louder (per my wife) than my full-sized resmed 11. Supposedly they have the same air pump, but the full size units have more foam for sound deadening. I find my full sized machine to be a smidge more comfortable, but the air Mini is better than my old travel unit, a Z2.
Excellent review. Thank you. Quick question I picked up the DC converter for camping and noticed that the wattage is 65w compared to the ac adapter which is 20w. Will I be using more power from my portable battery when choosing the DC adapter? Thanks!
Please contact technical support for questions regarding the DC/AC difference 1800 424 0737. Thank you for watching, if you enjoyed our video, please do not forget to Like and Subscribe for more sleep related content.
Even the S10 on dc power, dc to dc, uses only 15W max with no humidifier. This uses the same pump, so the wattage is 7 to 15 watts. You are probably converting a battery to a.c. and then back to d.c. which is silly. Use a dc to dc converter, I do. 12v to 24v converters are $30.
Proprietary power adapter. Power adapter is larger than the CPAP unit. USB-C or not buying.
Is it TSA friendly? I experienced my first air travel last month Those SOB's of te Maryland/Washington TSA cut my $20 BRINKS lock because of my CPAP
Yes the Airmini is FAA approved. TSA will still need to inspect your machine as they do a lap top. I would not suggest locking your machine into your checked in luggage. It is a free carry on, on top of your personal item and carry on luggage as it is a medical device.
Great information

Great review!
The problem with the noise is not from the device itself but from the air hose connected to the mask… where the air is expelled…
Hi, yes unfortunately the airflow noise is a problem for some users. We made a video that goes over the different accessories that can help dampen the noise. ruclips.net/video/V2_qk3DYqpU/видео.htmlsi=EdpzExVnvMUqdNuW
If you're using the tubing adapter, use a standard 22mm instead of a slim 15mm tubing. Also, putting the AirMini lower than your head seems to help some users too (even though the noise is not due to a loud motor).
Great video, very helpful!

Great video. I was considering this unit for travel plus daily use, but now I have some doubts. Is there a machine that you would recommend for daily use plus travel?
Thank you! We don't recommend using a travel CPAP as an everyday machine b/c it's louder and the motor isn't designed to work every single day for years like a home unit. If you want to know every reason why it's not a good idea, we have an article: kb.respshop.com/can-i-use-a-travel-cpap-machine-full-time/
The article also goes over important features to look for if you're set on using a travel cpap everyday. Personally I'd recommend the ResMed AirSense 10 or 11 for daily use and travel. They're really not that big and if you fly, you can bring the CPAP bag as a carry-on in addition to your personal item and carry-on. For the AirSense 10, you can remove the water tub and close off the gap that's left behind with a side cover to make the machine smaller (if you don't use the humidifier at all/don't use it when you travel).
If having a small machine is very important, I suggest getting a good solid home machine for daily use and then pick up a travel CPAP when they go on sale. Breas Z2 auto travel CPAP is good if you need a quiet machine and APEX XT Auto Travel CPAP is very affordable (but louder).
Thank you
You are welcome!

What is the power outlet used for? Can it charge a phone?
The power outlet is for charging the AirMini.
@@RespShop so why do they call it an outlet then?
I have the ResMed Airsense 11 and the AirMini. The air mini is quite a bit louder in the airsense 11, which does bother my wife. I have tried it without the HME filters, and then, with the filters, to see if they reduce any of the noise and I don't notice much of a difference. What do you suggest?
The airmini is louder as there is not much sound proofing foam around the motor due to the size. Your provider should have advised you of the difference in noise.
Unfortunley, there is nothing to assist with reducing the noise.
Hi Leo, just got one to take on Holiday but I find it too noisy cant get off too sleep well & my Partner has said its too loud .
I ordered the adapters, allowing the standard Rez med, hose to fit on the mini, and also ordered the adapter to replace the proprietorial mask and the inline filter. Since I have the same mask (N20)and standard hose on the Rez med 11, I was able to try different combinations. There was a substantial noise reduction in using my standard Res med hose and mask, it was also a significant noise reduction by replacing the inline humidifier and proprietary mask, keeping the standard air mini hose.
I haven’t seen anyone comment or try this, but it does work! Night and day difference.
@@LeoDodier can you send link for these adapters
@@partisanrocktactical2174 I bought them on Amazon, they were easy to find, and they had many of them. I hope they work well for you too.

why did you not mention the ADAPTER available online for the AirMini? you can use any type of hose and mask without the rip-off by Resmed?
Hello @gels1922,
The video was produced before the adapter was distributed. You can check out the adapter here: www.respshop.com/cpap-supplies/tubing/airmini-cpap-tube-connector-p-1384.html
Do the pressure settings on the resumed air mini change automatically based upon my breathing ? Mine seems to be set by the manufacturer to 10 when I first got it Thanks Lee
Hi Lee, the AirMini has both autoCPAP and CPAP modes. You can check your current pressure setting on the AirMini app. If you want to make adjustments to your pressure settings, we have a helpful video:ruclips.net/video/UMAXzOB8d2k/видео.htmlsi=na5fuDtPewUJyJMN.
Please make sure you consult your doctor before making any pressure changes :)
Does the mini draw less power than the 10 or 11? I like to camp and have a emergency battery with a dc 12v - 24v adapter for my resMed 10. I don't use the humidifier so I see the draw to the mini, but I'm not sold on it unless I could get more life out of my battery.
Thank you for watching! The AirMini has a peak power consumption of 27W
When do you think ResMed will release an updated Airmini that is commensurate with the Resmed Airsense 11. This model has been out for quite a long time.
Hi there! Unfortunately, we have no idea when ResMed will be releasing an updated AirMini. They have yet to release the AirSense 11 in the advanced modes like BiPAP or ASV. I suspect that will happen before they update the Mini, but we really don't know. However, we're likely to let everyone know once we get any announcement from them, feel free to subscribe to our channel and get the updated info!
If i buy from your shop, do i take this airmini to my doctor to get it programmed?
Hi, when you purchase a machine from us, we'll program it according to your prescription so it's all set up and ready to use when you receive it.
Does this unit require a power brick to operate? How big is the travel case? Does the travel case have room for the mask and hose? Please show the entire unit size packed in a travel case.
I have this machine so let me help you out 1). You can buy a battery for it and you get 2 nights out of it which costs 335.00 2). It comes with a wall charger and an interchangeable plug to switch between charging the battery as well using the unit at night..3). It comes in a very light weight nylon bag enough to fit plugs, the hose, the battery and the machine, it's ridiculously light and probably weighs about a pound and a half at the most..
Feel free to call us and speak to our medical staff to answer all your questions 1866 936 3754.
Hi. Can you please help me. Can I use it with out the humidifier tablets? It’s too noisy since it’s close ti my face. Thanks
Yes you can use it without the HumidX tablets.
Does the mini work with BiPap technology too?
Unfortunately the AirMini doesn't come with BiPAP mode. There aren't any travel BiPAPs as of now. Maybe in the future as technology improves we'll have travel sized BiPAP machines.
Can you rinse out the HME filters to extend their life?
Unfortunately not Steve. You will need to purchase new ones after 30 days.
Useful video but there is absolutely no need for that distracting background music.
Really puts me off watching further videos.
Sorry for the loud background music. We've adjusted it in our newer videos!
Well done guys. Really want to hear what you have to say.👍
I’m returning my air mini, the noise from the humidifier is unbearable and the humidifier does not provide enough humidity for me.
I am sorry to hear that! Travel machines aren't for everyone due to the humidity and noise. Some patients find benefits in using the airmini tube adapter, vcom, and using a heat moisture exchanger. Feel free to call us for more info 1866-936-3754.

Went way too fast over the potable power option. Isn’t there just a simple battery we can buy?
We recommend the Zopec Universal Smart Travel Battery, weighing at 2lbs it is a multi purpose battery and can give you anywhere from 10-16 hours of CPAP use on one charge.
So how long does a single cartridge last? I also need some kind of record keeping for my job. Is there no way it’s recorded longer than a month?
Hi, once opened, a single HumidX cartridge is good for 30 days max. Unfortunately there's no way to see data older than a month on the AirMini app. But your CPAP provider/doctor can access all you past data on their software if your AirMini is set up on the software.
We offer this service as well: CPAP remote data download(www.respshop.com/remote-data-downloading-service-a-844.html). Basically we set your machine up on the software and then send you the CPAP report for the past 90 days. You can specify the time frame too.
@@RespShop thank you for the info

@@RespShop Is the Mini using the same tube or buoyancy as the AirSense 10?
@@djpaceeuro Not sure what you mean by buoyancy but I can answer your question about the tube. The AirMini doesn't use the same tube as the AirSense 10. It uses the AirMini Tubing which is a non-heated 15mm hose with a special end connections. The AirMini Tubing can only connect to the AirMini and to AirMini-specific CPAP masks.
Please explain how to access the past month's data on the Mini. Thank you
Please contact your provider for assistance.
Would you recommend the ResMed Air Mini or the Breas Z2? Thanks!
Hello Chris, both are great machines. Feel free to give us a call at 1866 936 3754 and speak to one of our sleep expert agents, they will be able to give you some break down on which machine will work better for you.
I believe you can use other CPAP masks with this machine via an adaptor. Is that right? thx!!
Yes! You can use the airmini tube adapter, none heated tube and the mask of your choice. Just note you will not be able to use the humidifier capsules.
@@RespShop Many thanks my friend. Best! Don
Hi, can any of these travel CPAP machines run off a USB port? would like to use it on overnight flights. Cheers
Sadly, none of the travel machines run off a USB port. You would have to run the machine off a FAA approved travel battery like the Zopec.

Is there a travel Bipap recommendation?
At this time no manufactures have created a travel Bipap! Like you, we hope it will be soon!
i feel like the battery kind of detracts from the whole "lightweight" and "compact" thing.
The battery we carry (Medistrom) weighs a total of 1.3lbs and is optional if backpacking, camping, or needing to use the device where there is no electricity or frequent power outages.
Can you use this on an airplane? How do you supply the power?
The airmini is FAA approved, however use of it on an aircraft depends on your Airline. It is powered with a 65v AC power supply. However, you are able to purchase a external battery, we recommend the Zopec Universal Smart Travel Battery, weighing at 2lbs it is a multi purpose battery and can give you anywhere from 10-16 hours of CPAP use.
You can use the F30 mask as well, no?
Yes, you can. However, you will not be able to use the humidifier capsules. Thank you for watching, if you enjoyed our video, please do not forget to Like and Subscribe for more sleep related content.
Hi RespShop, is the Airmini app region-lock in any way? If I buy a USA unit, and bring home to Asia - Can I still use it in Asia?
Hi, the AirMini app isn't region locked. You can use your AirMini in Asia if it's purchased in the US.
Thank you so much for the prompt reply : )@@RespShop
Does the app connect with the data from my regular machine? I have to use it 4 hours a night to show the DOT physical doctor so i can keep my license so does the data get put on the report that i print out?
The airmini connects to Airview which your Dr or provider has access too and can then download your compliance data and give that to you. If you do not have a Dr/provider to do that. Feel free to call RespShop, we provide remote service for $49/year and email you your compliance data every 3 months. Please feel free to call 1866 936 3754 and dial 2 to speak to our medical team.

Can people use this CPAP in an airplane?
Yes, the AirMini is FAA-approved and can be used on the plane.
Another introduction to the Air Mini from someone who did not try it for a few days, nor make it work for the camera and see that it makes a lot of noise around the humidity disk area (the joint). The Air Mini machine-engine itself is rather silent, but the wind noise coming out of the disk zone is too loud for anyone. Not a fair video.
Thank you for your feedback!
Does sleep apnea cause male pattern baldness?
Some research in this area has suggested sleep apnea can lead to baldness. Sleep apnea can cause thinning of hair. The reasoning is very similar to how a lack of sleep can cause hair loss as it affects hormone levels. This would be best consulted with your Dr.

No new information I hadn’t seen in the reviews and the lack of information about power supply options was disappointing
Hello Laura,
Feel free to give us a call if you find that your questions about the unit has not been answered. You can reach us at 1866 936 3754.
Are there mini/travel size bipaps?
Unfortunately, there is not at this time.
does anyone use it as their every day device?
There are some patients who use the Airmini as full time unit. Just a reminder the unit itself is much smaller than a full time unit. Which means the motor will be much smaller. Most full time units will last you up to 5 years. The airmini life span may be less than that if using it every day.

Luckily my machine makes no noise. My finance says she can’t hear a sound either. In fact I didn’t believe it was on at first. My only question is the exhaust vent. On my full size machine there is a constant airflow from the tubing bend/exhaust port. I feel no exhaust air flow from this at all.. anywhere.. is this normal?
The air vent is where you connect the humidx capsules to the hose and mask. Tiny small air vents. Not as noticeable as your full time device.
Yours must be broken since almost all comments I've read have been about how loud it is.
is it loud?
Sound is 30 DBA. A bit louder than a full time unit, due to size there is not as much sound proofing around the motor.

I need this mashine in bipap ! Is this also in bipap version

I am sorry, currently a Travel BIPAP machine has not been manufactured.
Hi, i use the airfit f30 mask with my lumis 100 can i use this with the air mini ❤❤❤ EDIT: i found out, i can't i can only use f20 😢
Hi, thank you for watching! You can use the F30 with the AirMini as long as you have the F20/F30 mask connector (www.respshop.com/cpap-masks/parts/othe-parts/resmed-f20-mask-connector-for-airmini-cpap-p-1211.html). The downside is there isn't a HumidX compatible for the F30 so you wouldn't have any humidification.
Cool video!

No real info. He just plays ball with himself...and us.
It’s too loud.
I am sorry to hear your find the airmini louder. Note that most travel machines are louder, due to the size there is not much sound proofing material around the motor.
Don't buy it. NO RETURNS. The machine itself is very quiet but the air noise from the vent on your mask makes it unusable to sleep with. Bought one for my wife at the same time now we are stuck with two $1000 paper weights. Worked with the vendor to try to fix it, different hoses, mufflers, Masks, settings... nothing. Last warning don't buy it.
I an having the same
Issue . It is sooooo loud when i breath with my mask I can’t sleep
With it. 50 decibels
Did you try a universal adapter with regular mask? I don't plan using the humidity part
@@rickflavoredarsenal Yes the airflow from the AirMini isn't acoustically modeled for any mask. Like others have said you will hear every breath no matter what muffler, tubing or mask. I haven't tried any N (nose) style masks yet, but for all Hybrid/Full Face the mask is VERY loud.
@mscolli3 I ordered one and I don't find the noise is much different than my Airsense 11. I use the same nasal mask on both machines with the adapter
@@rickflavoredarsenal Hm maybe its different for the nasal masks, thanks
Can my insurance pay for this?
You will need to contact your insurance provider to see if your plan will allow a Travel machine to be purchased under your plan.
No side-view, no nothing. How thick is it? How does it work? How much does it weigh...etc., etc., etc.? It blows air already. We knew that. So does this ad.

Why not just make all the machines like the airmini so I don’t have to buy both.
Hello,
The airmini may not be comfortable for all as it does not come with a heated humidifier or heated tube. The motor is a lot smaller as well so if used daily, your machine will expire sooner then the full time machines.

Because it costs so much more to make the unit smaller, and the small size comes with limitations that are not ideal for long term usage.
