BreatheX Journey Battery Powered CPAP Machine

The Journey operates so quite and gives me the position flexability that I needed. I now feel confident that I'll be able to sleep on overnight overseas flights. Just one caveat,the package didn't come with the 21" hose as advertised;however,when contacted my supplier ageed to ship me a 24" humidifier hose.

Excellent machine. Works well, is easy to use and fits my needs. Would recommend to anyone traveling or those who just want to take a nap on the couch again.

The idea of having to charge 1st and then run it only on battery worries me. This unit only runs when its running off its battery. There isnt a way I can see where you can run it directly off an electrical source. Especially if I dont get an opportunity to charge it and then want to sleep, I should be able to use it off the plug as well. However once charged it did run all night and works great. Real impressive little unit for the size and weight. The cloth cover on the unit wont last very long and the 'travel bag' they give you is big & ugly. Need a better Zipper Case to support airline travel, especially since the CPAP machine needs to be removed from your bag and sent through he scanner separately. Hopefully there is a way to replace the cloth cover that I predict will get ripped.

Purchased the BreatheX Journey for a trip to Canada where I would be staying in a cabin that had electricity only from 7:00 AM - 11:00 PM. Purchased an extra battery just in case it took longer to recharge than I had hoped. The CPAP worked fine AFTER discharging and recharging EACH battery fully. After the initial discharge/recharge, each daily recharge cycle took only 3 - 4 hours after 8+ hours use. Since I would be away from camp each day out fishing and not certain how the battery would be affected by continuing to charge after the "green light" came on, I used a timer that automatically shut off the charger after 3 hours and "topped off" the charge after returning each evening. Never needed the second battery. Before leaving on the trip, I had tested the pressure using a CPAP manometer and it tested a true "8" as set by the vendor per my prescription. The machine worked while sitting on any side (top up, bottom up, either side up) with no fluctuation in pressure. Fits easily in my backpack for travel as a carry-on on airlines. Only drawback is not being able to use the machine while on recharge. Separate charger for charging extra battery at night while using the BreatheX Journey unit to accomodate day travel would be nice. However, I would purchase another Journey CPAP if I ever need an additional unit.
