Charging Your CPAP Battery

This battery can be used as a portable power source when traveling with your CPAP machine. To do this, you will need to charge the battery ahead of time.

  1. Disconnect your CPAP machine from the power cord.
  2. If you are using an AirSense 10, connect your machine's power cord to your battery through the "CHARGE" port of the battery.
  3. If you are using any other compatible machine, connect your machine's power cord to the charging adaptor.
  4. Plug the adaptor into the "CHARGE" port of the battery.

Using Your Battery As a Backup Power Source

If you are expecting a power outage while you are using your CPAP machine, a backup battery can prevent you from having to cut your CPAP therapy short. This battery can be used as a backup power supply that immediately takes over powering your machine the moment your home loses electricity, so you don't have to wake up.

  1. Disconnect your CPAP machine from its power supply cord.
  2. Connect your battery to your machine's power cord as if you were about to charge it.
  3. Plug the machine connecting cable into the "DC OUT" port.
  4. Plug the other end of the machine connecting cable into your machine.
  5. Turn on your battery.
  6. Your battery should begin charging as it powers your CPAP machine at the same time.

Extending the Life of Your CPAP Battery

  • Extend battery power by turning off humidifier and heated tubing. 
  • Using a humidifier reduces battery run time by 50 - 60%.
  • Using a humidifier and heated tubing reduces battery run time by 70-80%.
  • BiPAP machines require about 20% more power than CPAP. 
  • Travel machines use less power than a standard machine and are ideal for frequent travelers or power outages. 
  • If battery life is limited and you will not have access to power for several days, talk to your doctor about temporarily limiting CPAP usage to 4-6 hours per night.
