Tips for Getting the Most Out of Your AirSense 10 Battery Power
For the times when you rely solely on your battery and have no other means of powering your AirSense 10, such as on a camping trip, keep the following tips in mind to maximize your battery’s runtime:
- Don’t Use Humidification: The most significant power draw from your CPAP machine will be from the humidifier, so you’ll want to be sure to turn your humidification off when using a battery to power your AirSense 10.
- Use Standard Tubing: Similarly, heated tubing draws extra power and could drain your battery before the night is through. Use standard unheated tubing when traveling to maximize your battery’s runtime.
- Use APAP Mode: With the AirSense 10 AutoSet, you can choose between the standard APAP mode, which automatically adjusts to your breathing, and CPAP mode, which supplies a continuous, set pressure. While it may be tempting to set a lower CPAP pressure, keeping your machine on APAP will ensure you’re getting adequate therapy at the lowest possible power draw. With CPAP, you might get more time out of your battery with a consistently lower pressure, but it may not fully clear your airway obstruction, leading to a restless night.
- Test at Home: This won’t get you more runtime, but it will give you an idea of what to expect from your battery before you depend on it away from home. Use your battery to power your CPAP for a couple of nights while you’re still at home to make sure you can sleep through the night with your current settings. You may find that you need a larger battery than you thought, especially if you prefer sleeping with humidification.
Frequently Asked Questions About AirSense 10 Batteries
How Long Do These Batteries Last?
Battery life depends almost entirely on capacity, but as discussed above, it can also vary based on your settings, such as humidification and heated tubing. With its 95 Wh capacity, you can expect the Medistrom Pilot-24 to power your AirSense 10 without heated tubing or humidification at an average pressure of 10 cmh2O for 8-10 hours, or roughly one night of therapy.
To ensure a whole night of therapy with your AirSense 10 without worry, we recommend choosing a battery with at least 120 Wh of capacity, though you should still recharge it the next day. A large battery like the EXP96 Pro can power your machine on similar settings for about three nights without needing to recharge, or one to two nights with a high pressure setting and heated humidification.
How Long Does It Take for the Battery To Recharge?
Similarly to run times, your battery’s capacity will have a direct impact on charge times. On average, you should be able to recharge your CPAP battery in three to six hours. Larger batteries like the EXP96 Pro will need eight to eleven hours to recharge, but typically supply more than one night of power.
