Word of Caution to RESmed S8 and S8 II Machine Users
YOU MUST USE THIS DC-12 Converter when powering S8 machines through a DC battery source. Failure to do so can result in damage to your CPAP.
Word of Caution to RESmed S8 and S8 II Machine Users
YOU MUST USE the DC-12 Converter For S8 Machines when drawing power directly from a DC battery source (no inverter and no humidifier). Failure to do so can result in damage to your CPAP. ResMed S8 machines with a Humidaire heated humidifier (h3i and H4i) require a pure AC power source in order for the humidifier to work properly. The machine disables the humidifier when connected through DC Power. The machine and humidifier will both work properly only when connected to pure A/C power. You will need the DC to AC Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter to operate both.
This worked well for use during a camping trip. I went three days on battery power with no problem. My wife especially was appreciative of it working during the trip. I would recommend for anyone to use that only has 12V available.

Not portable
It does the job but the "box" is very large and heavy. Not really very portable

Works just fine
Connected the converter to a 28 Ah AGM battery for test. My ResMed ran for 10 hours and battery was only at 50% in the morning. Converter never got warm during usage. This will be great for power outages and camping

Not cfortable for use in planes
Too much weight for traveling, per example is too big for connect in airplanes, in the past I use Good Knight and this was conected with a simple lighter connector. May be is neccesary to review this element and create an special connector for planes

Worked as Expected
No problems with this device. It worked as it should. I was able to camp with my son and still use the CPAP.

Good investment
Only used it once for a few seconds to test it and it worked fine. It arrived on time in good condition. Lack of electricity will no longer impair my outdoor sleeping.

The converter is working great as a solar cell/battery backup power source. Our electricity drops out at odd times, usually at night which wakes me up. Not any more. And camping out is no longer a problem using a battery as a power source.
