The REMstar Plus M Series is a small and convenient CPAP that looks more like a stylish clock radio than a CPAP.
It easily packs away in your carry on luggage, and has an incredible number of high-tech features, including the patented C-Flex comfort feature, on board.
The REMstar Plus M Series with C-Flex offers optional integrated humidification, optional Encore Pro SmartCard capability for basic compliance reporting, lighted controls, an easy-to-read display and the comfort of C-Flex.
The REMstar Plus sports a small, sleek device and case, a less obtrusive profile with tubing connected in the back and a "hidden" water chamber.
The plus offers lighted primary touch controls for power, ramp, and C-Flex as well as a LCD display and controls for advanced reporting and set up.
The optional integrated humidifier has simple controls and an easy to turn humidification dial. The water chamber is easy to remove, fill, replace, and
delivers continuous humidification throughout the night.
The REMstar Plus is convenient for travel with or without the integrated humidifier. The standard travel carry case has been updated with a new sleeker look.

Power Options
Universal Power
The M Series Plus operates automatically between 110v – 240v AC. When traveling either inside or outside the USA, there are no switches to switch or fuses to change. The machine will automatically sense what voltage is needed and set itself to run on the power needed.
The user will need to adapt the plug that goes into the wall to fit the style of outlet socket that is being used. This is simply done with a Power Adapter Plug kit. This is the same type of plug adapter that would be used with a hair dryer or an electric shaver.
The M Series Plus equipped with a DC plug on the back of the unit. This allows the user to connect the CPAP to an external DC battery source.
Using a Respironics, 12volt DC Power Cord the M Series Remstar Plus can be powered by plugging into a cigarette lighter plug. This is ideal for traveling by car, boat, or recreational vehicle that is equipped with a cigarette lighter plug.
It is recommended that you use a 100 amp hour, 12v DC deep cycle marine battery for operating you CPAP machine when not connected to 110v AC /230v AC.
There are two cables needed to configure the M Series Plus with a Marine Deep Cycle Battery. They fit together to make a connection from the back of the M Series Remstar Plus to the battery clip terminals on the marine battery.
Here are the links to the cables needed to hook up to a marine style battery. Both cables are needed.
The Respironics Battery Pack has been a long standing favorite of our customer’s. It weighs in at 13lbs and can be carried easily with its shoulder strap.
This battery pack will give roughly 26 hours of use, depending on the cpap pressure setting. (Results may vary.)
* The Respironics Battery Pack must be charged with shore power. This unit can be charged at voltages ranging from 115v – 230v.

User Reviews
CPAP
July 19, 2008
(5 out of 5) by Timothy S, Carrollton, TX
"If you already have a machine, and you are looking to buy another, you know you wouldn't ever want to live without it. Mine broke causing me to order this one. I am still getting the old one repaired. If you depend on it like I do, you should have 2."
M Series Plus C-flex
July 17, 2008
(5 out of 5) by Lawrence J, Ontario, CA
"I'm new to CPAP machines but I found that the panel needs to be back lit so you can adjust the C-flex. In regards to adjusting the C-flex, there are 3 settings and quite frankly, I couldn't feel a difference"
love the C-Flex part
July 11, 2008
(5 out of 5) by Kevin M, AZ
"M Series Plus C-Flex CPAP Machine is very adjustable and I love the C-Flex part because I do not have to breath out so hard to fight the pressure. The fact the pressure lower a I breathe out help me sleep better. the first night was funny because the pressure was so low on my exhale I would wake up because I thought it stopped working but it was just doing it job. It just took one night for me to relearn how nice it is the breath without having to exhale so hard enjoying a great night sleep. Even though I have been using a different CPAP for about 10 years I have not had a full 8 hour sleep in one night till now."

"I liked the smaller size and smaller water container."
My Second Unit
June 11, 2008
(5 out of 5) by Joe K, PA
"This is my second unit. I got my first 1 year ago, and wanted a second machine for my weekend house so I didn't have to keep taking it back and forth and forgetting to bring it. My Dr ordered the first machine at a much higher price. This one came from CPAP.com at a much cheaper price. The machines are the same except for the drawer the water goes in has been redesigned. The new one uses less water when set on #5. The original machine would be dry in the morning, this new one has water left in it. Otherwise they seem to work the same. I have had no trouble with it in one year. I use the Ultra Mirage full face mask with both of them."
