BLUETTICPAP Battery Backup X30 297Wh Power Supply with Comprehensive Cable Set for ResMed S9, AirSense 10, AirSense 11, AirMini, AirCurve 10, ldeal for Camping & Hurricane Preparedness

In 2018, I began BPAP therapy with a ResMed AirCurve 10 device. With an upcoming remote tent camping trip, I looked for a power bank that was portable, compact and lightweight. The Maxoak K5 fit the bill, giving me several nights of power before it required recharging in my vehicles 110-volt outlet.The Bluetti X30 is the next generation in what appears to be the same frame with several improvements over the K5. With a new Lithium battery system, the recharge cycles have increased from 1000 to 2000. It comes with a variety of power cables, all labeled for various compatible device. The LCD backlight turns off in a few seconds with only a very subtle blinking night light along its bottom edge. Start-up has also been simplified. Press the power button for a few seconds to turn on. Plug in the appropriate power cable and the X30 recognizes it and displays the related power on the LCD screen. Press the DC button to direct power to the cable and plug it into the device. Simple! At 95% battery usage, there is a continuous beeping, alerting it is time to recharge the power bank.In testing the X30, I get 4, six-hour nights with the heater/humidity turned off. Because my device double pressures are high (range 12 to 17) it impacts usage hours. A CPAP verses BPAP device, with a single lower pressure will improve usage hours.All in all, The Bluetti X30 is a great, compact, lightweight power bank. If I had any recommendations, the power cables could be much longer. It still requires 110 volts to recharge but if you are camping in a National Park without power access, any ranger station will recharge medical devices. The new travel case is a nice bonus.

I’ve seen a lot of mixed reviews on this unit. Some people saying it doesn’t last long, others saying it works great. And all saying that you shouldn’t use your humidifier and heated hose (for maximum usage time).I can only tell you that it seems to work great.I tested it last night with my Airsense 11 with the humidifier on and using a heated hose.The Airsense ran perfectly all night long and when I woke up in the morning, the battery still had 56% charge, implying that it would last for two complete nights with the humidifier and heated hose both in use.My only complaint would be that you can’t charge and use it simultaneously. Other units like the Freedom 160 have that capability so that you can leave them plugged in, in-line with your CPAP, and use them as a form of UPS in case of power outages, and still have the flexibility to take it with you to use it as a portable battery. The downside of that unit is that is has less capacity, probably due to airline restrictions that don’t allow larger batteries on planes.

I really like this battery! I bought it 10 days ago but just got around to trying it this week. First I READ THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL. I charged it up and then hooked it up to my Airsense 11. It has only been 2 night so far. I slept 8.5 hours the first night and 9 the second, After 2 nights it is at 59%, it would probably be at 60 if I hadn't have slept in. At this rate I should have no problem reaching 5 nights of use on one charge, also it is hard to describe but my machine seems to run better off the battery. I wonder if the people who aren't getting the same result as me are heeding the instruction manual's advice to turn the humidifier off.

Seems like a solid unit and works well. Charges easily, and it is easy to figure out which of the supplied power cords fit with your CPAP machine. The two biggest issues that I have are that it can only around one device at a time and that it actually weighs 4.2 pounds. End of the day, I have to take it with me regardless because I depend on my CPAP machine to treat my central sleep apnea. But when you’re backpacking, a few ounces can make all the difference in the world. To be over a pound off of the actual weight of the device is a big deal.

Not compatible with Phillips dreamstation. Not enough power to support actual use of CPAP just enough power to start machine and once mask is on it shuts off. Returning.
